Deepest sympathy to all the family. Harry did a term as President/Chairman of Wellington Operatic Society (now known as Wellington Musical Theatre) which I was also on the committee during Harry's term. He would also be remembered as Mr Padget in the television show titled "Close to Home", a 1970s New Zealand made television soap series.
Sincerely, Ted Piner (Life Member - Wellington Operatic Society).
