This note in regards to Harry Winter was found in his Granddaughters writings. I believe it was the rough draft for his obit. Winifred Perle Pawson writes; "One of Salt Lake's oldest residents has gone on to join his many pioneer companions , who built this great Western Empire. He was one of Salt Lakes first sheepmen. The Winter brothers, James and Harry were amoung the first to recognize the need for new breeds of sheep to be brought into the Great Salt Lake Valley. Although not active in LDS Church work, as was his brother James, Harry Winter believed in the growth of the Great Salt Lake, and spent many hours of volunteer work on the Temple and other civic efforts. During his early youth he was a driver for the many wagontrains bringing materials to supply the demands of the early pioneers of this vast western area. Rich indeed were the experiences of this beloved person, and his greatest delight was relating these glorius tales to his adoring children, grand children & Great grandchildren. His life was indeed rich."
