Harry was born in Moorcroft, Wyoming on the 26th of July 1915, the only child of John and Minnie (Heumier) Berger. He lived his life as a rancher at Oshoto and was married to Montana Virginia Wagoner on the 15th of March 1934. Montana preceded him in death on the 18th of May 2005, but they were perfectly matched and shared a love of ranching, horses and dogs. Harry was a man of good cheer and great integrity, for him, his word was his bond. One of the last of the old time ranchers, Harry lived through some of the most interesting time and saw life on the open range change with modern technology and experienced the rigors of ranching from every standpoint.
He is survived by his sons, Jerry Allen Berger and Larry Gene Berger and Larry's wife Sara and their children, April R. Berger, Robert Lee Berger and John Henry Berger, son-in-law, Donald W. Proctor and his sons, Jimmy Dale (Pam) Proctor and their son Trent and Jay Dee (Kim) Proctor and their son Peyton.
Harry's beloved daughter, Virginia Gail Proctor preceded him in death.
Arrangements are under the care of Fidler-Roberts & Isburg Funeral Chapel in Sundance, WY
