  25. ↑ Burial records show he was cremated on July 3, 1941. We found a tombstonewith Harry's name and no dates inscribed with his first wife's name onit and infant son, in Barbara Krumm's lot. There is no marker for himwith his second wife and children. This from Bob Krumm: Wife, Helen, hadhim cremated and the ashes scattered about the family farm outside ofReynoldburg. Helen was allegedly jealous of Harry's first wife, whichmight have been the reason Harry's body was cremated and scattered, sohe could not be buried with his first wife
  26. ↑ The exact date of Harry's birth was not known. He never wanted anyone toknow when he was born and actually lied about his age so he could getinto the military. He used three different dates of birth. Becausebrother, Louie, was much younger, he was never sure when Harry was born
