This is my Great Uncle, Harry Deschamps.

Harry owned and operated an auto parts and salvage yard in Kokomo, IN.



He was also a very excellent table tennis player playing well into his 80's.

Harry is still alive, but unfortunately I never got to see him play table tennis professionally. However, I do have the fond memory of playing against him as a child... I'm pretty sure he won.

I still see him a couple times a year. He's sort of a perverted old man and has a lost a step or two mentally and physically. Regardless I enjoy being around him, as he's easily the most interesting character in my family. Also, he did teach me how to beat that triangle golf tee game with my eyes closed.

Here's to you Great Uncle Harry.
