Submitted by Fran Olson Gustafson 1965 <fgustafson917@gmail.com> on 16/Mar/2020 184.103.144.246

Harry
Fatt, 72, lovingly known to family as Grampy, Hank, or Hankie Poo, gained his
wings on March 15, 2020. He was the oldest of three brothers, and was completely
in love with his wife of almost 48 years, Cheryl. Harry was a devoted fireman of
Vails Gate Fire Company, wearing many hats including president. The family will
forever hold dear to their hearts the memories of all the family vacations to
Cape May, Wildwood, NJ, Florida, Vermont, Connecticut, Boston, MA, and his most
favorite of all, Graceland in Memphis, TN. Harry loved all things Elvis Presley.
He was a diehard Yankees and Giants fan, and loved listening to oldies and
country music. He loved watching sitcoms and eating raisin clusters from
Commodore. His grandchildren were the apple of his eye, and he was proud of them
all. He was our personal meteorologist and our schedule keeper, and we will miss
him tremendously. Survivors include his loving wife, Cheryl; his son, Michael
Fatt and his wife Hope of Newburgh; and his grandchildren: Kayla Anne, Emma
Rose, Allison Jade, and Aiden Robert Fatt, all of Newburgh. He was predeceased
by his parents, Aaron and Evelyn (Canty) Fatt, and his brothers, Dennis and
William “Bill” Fatt. Visitation will be held from 4-7 p.m. on Thursday, March 19
at Brooks Funeral Home, 481 Gidney Ave., Newburgh. Family and friends will
gather at 12 p.m. on Friday at the funeral home for a procession to Cedar Hill
Cemetery for burial. In lieu of flowers memorial donations may be sent to St.
Jude Children’s Research Hospital at
