Favorite family functions:
In california Patty always had family BBQ's, his parents would come over a lot and they would eat and play rummy. They always celebrated Harry's birthdays with family bbq's! He always enjoyed everyone coming over for the holidays, graduations, birthdays or just because.... Up in Washington he still enjoyed his family get togethers.
Salame sandwiches, BBQ potato chips, potato salad, steak, mashed potatoes with gravy, bacon and scrambled eggs, crab, waffles, chocolate chip cookies, glazed donuts, vanilla ice cream, vanilla shakes, fried rice, lumpias, and coke. He always liked a dinner with "meat," not chicken! He also loved to make, grill, and eat his shisk-a-bobs!
Favorite outdoor activities:
He liked to go to the parks in Washington as most of them have lakes surrounding them. He liked to take the dogs down by the water and let them run. He enjoyed collecting sand dollars and skipping rocks. He liked to go to the Fall's park and watch the salmon come up the fish ladder, and be in awe at the amount of salmon and the size! The parks and lakes in Olympia are majestic, with evergreen trees and waterfalls. He loved nature and he
was surrounded by it in the Pacific Northwest.
Favorite hobbies:
Harry wanted to learn how to do woodburning and wanted to learn how to water color. He would go to the nursery when they had their special day which was where they sold tree branches and plants to the public. He would buy these sticks, which were trees and bushes, not knowing anything about them. He just planted them around the house and every spring he had these tress and bushes grow with vibrant colors and some where flowering. It's just so amazing how pretty everything is and Harry is the one who planted them all.

He also loved to paint by Bob Ross and liked to paint his "happy little trees."
He liked to read his books before going to bed. His favorite was always sci-fi and he read Mack Bolan and Death Lands. He watched stargate atlantis, stargate, enterprise and the movies with aliens. He loved Star Trek, but was definitely not a "trekkie". He just liked watching the the sci-fi shows that had good stories to them. He also liked to watch baseball , foot ball, tennis and golf. He took a new liking to scary movies.
Favorite sports to play:
He played basketball in highschool and was the pointguard for the El Camino Colts. He was an excellent bowler and often bowled above a 200... even on a bad night. He was pretty good at ping-pong and an even better pool player. Below is a picture of his first bowling trophies and a picture of him playing basketball with Robert:
