Necessity required that he re-enter the work world & he joined his son-in-law in the beer, wine and liquor brokerage business. After working for Joe Brown for several years, the Roma Wine Company maintained his position as their district representative, a job that he held until he retired for the second time. He continued to live in Portland but spent summers at Seaside. Harry & Gertrude passed their final years at a retirement home, Capital Manor, in Salem, Oregon. During his long life many knew him as a crack shot, consumate fisherman, excellent cribbage player and great gentleman. His talent for whittling small toys and objects was long remembered by his grateful grandchildren & great grandchildren.
