A piece of my heart will be missing forever. Harry, you were not only an amazing example of what a man should be for his family, friends, and co-workers. You were someone I looked to as a second father. I hope You and Jayne both know now much I will always love the two of you and how much I’m going to miss you every single day. I thank God I was able to have the two of you as a part of my life and I will never forget the last time I saw you and you gave me a big hug and smile. I love you Harry Misener.
