The Obituary

Harry John Nolen

of Olympia, WA was born on March 20, 1955. A California native, he was a kind man who enjoyed the simpler things in life. He was fond of camping, sports, sci-fi, family barbeques, Koi fish ponds, playing his guitar, karaoke, his rock garden, and making people laugh. He served in the Army and worked for the Veterans Administration Regional Office in Oakland, CA for over 20 years. He fought hard, but finally lost his battle with cancer on October 3 at home surrounded by those that loved him. He is survived by his wife Patty, daughter Kimberly, son in law Everett, sister Rosie, niece Kelly and nephew Scott, step-children Matthew and his wife Katie, David and his long time love Kristina, Rachelle and Robert, grandson Joshua, mother Mabel, his pug whom he referred to as his "big boy" and many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. May he rest in peace.

The Grandson



"Where one Journey ends, another one begins"


We always joked that Joshua could be a "Mini-Me" of Harry. They ate bananas together and played trains with each other. He read stories to Joshua and helped him learn by painting and putting blocks together. Together they walked hand in hand as Bapah watched Joshua grow.
