Harry loves the game of golf and took great pride in working on the Quartzsite #2 Golf Course, affectionately referred to as "Harry's Course". He was the official "desert greens' keeper" at the course. In recent months, Harry has not been able to play golf due to health issues. As the weekly round was completed Saturday at Harry's Course, the players were surprised to see Harry and Lee drive up. He received a standing ovation, handshakes and hugs from the golfers. Harry can be seen in the midst of some of his buddies in the picture above. The soft-spoken gentleman is thought of as being a friend to everyone and great asset to the golfing community in Quartzsite. Thank you, Harry, for being our friend and golfing buddy!
