He worked with his brothers and family for many years before he became the owner and operator of his own Geiger's Bakery on Holme Circle, Philadelphia. Harry worked incredibly hard his entire life to take care of his family, making sure they enjoyed their vacations in Disney World and down at the Pan American Hotel in Wildwood Crest.

A proud veteran, Harry served as a cook in the Army National Guard for three years. He was a devoted lover of animals, had great companionships with all of his pets, especially his German Shepard.
