Faulkner: “The sudden an- untimely death of Harry Lucas came as a great shock to me as it did to all who knew him. I feel that. I have suffered a great per- sonal loss, for he was one of the very best friends I have ever had He was not only a good and true friend, but a valuable one; valu- able in many ways, but mostly be- !cause of his kindly disposition and cheerful and pleasant personality He was a reil man and one o! the foremost citizens of Juneau and the Territory of Alaska. It is almo: impossible to realize that we shal!l see him no more; but all of us who were privileged to have known him and to have profited -y association with him are better for that ex perience.” J. F. Mullen, Presiadht of the B. M. Behrends Bank: “The death of Harry Lucas is a grievous loss to the community, especia i3} who enjoyed ‘hi¢ friendship 1ti- mately. I have known Harry since 1912 when he first became associ- | ated with the Behrends Bank and through the years when he operated the Juneau Motors, the Assembly Company, and served as Mayor of Juneau. His. sterling integrity, and extraordinary kindness to those in need, together with his buoyant personality will always be unfor- gettable memories. I hope his fine | qualities as a father and a good | citizen may afford his family some consolation at this sad time.” Wallis S. George, President of the i Juneau Cold Storage Company of | which Mr. Luchs was secretary: “Harry and I were in business together at Behrends store when | he first came to town, and for many years with the Juneau Cold Storage; we've been through chairs of our,lodges together. He's been a friend and business associate for many years. Like all of Juneau, I'll miss him greatly.” Shattuck, whose brother ry =hattuck of the Juneau wmill was Mr. Lucas’' first em- ¥ er in Juneau: “Harry Lucas’ death was a profound shock to me as I know it was to the whole com~ munity and to his many friends throughout Alaska. He endeared Allen e B 5 & 1 lémseu to 'his friends bS his “sin- | cere friendliness, ' hi¢ Toyalty and | his integrity.
