Harry died in March, aged 93. He was born in Jericho and grew up in Walton Crescent in one of a row of five houses built by his father. He went to St Barnabas School and sang in the church choir. Leaving school at 14, he started work as a compositor at the Oxford Times, later transferring to the reading department where he worked for 35 years. In 1940, after marrying Nesta, a nurse at the Radcliffe, he moved to Headington. They had three sons, though one died at birth and is buried in St Sepulchre's. When Nesta died in 2000 he moved to Woodstock.
