Harry Harper

rnAlthough Harry knew that the track is the only building where windows clean people, he also knew how much fun could be had there. But with an ability to befriend anyone who crossed his path, many times he had the inside scoop on the horses in a race. For Harry a stranger was just a friend he hadn’t met yet. Maybe that’s why he could travel just about anywhere and run into someone he knew. rnIt was a good thing that Harry had a never-ending supply of stories, it took nearly all of them, and almost four years, to woo a young woman named Eleanor (nee Chase). But once he had it blossomed into their 60 year marriage. Together they were blessed by their children: George (Pegeen) of Delanco, Harry (Terri) of Riverside, Mark of TN, Jaclyn Greenburg of Delanco and the late Michael, and again by their 12 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren. Harry is also survived by his sisters Edith May Rodgers and Shirley Johnson of Burlington Twp.rnServices were private and at the convenience of the family.
