Condolence from Murray and Wendy Finch and family on October 8th, 2011 9:42 PM

To Ruth and the Jeffery family
We were very saddened to hear of Harrys passing. He was one a kind. We still have and cherish the wooden chest that he made from the boards from the old grainery from the Finch family farm that he gave to us as a wedding present 16 years ago this month. Our children have asked who made it and we are proud to say that it was a gift from their Aunt Nancy Janes father Harry Jeffery. It is currently at the foot of our eldest daughters bed who has claimed ownership of it!!! As time passes it will be considered an heirloom. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.
