Ooh, I am SO glad someone has brought up this one. No, I don't think 
he ever did. And this is a shame, because he badly needs to. The 
closest he ever got was at the end of GoF, when Mrs Weasley hugs him 
and I think he was about to, but they were interrupted. I don't think 
this is a coincidence. Harry is going to get more and more stressed 
out until he can finally cry (hopefully before someone tells him that 
big boys don't). His anger would have been a lot less in OoP if he'd 
been able to have that cry at the end of GoF. And now he's lost 
Sirius and still he hasn't been able to let out his grief in a great 
howl. Pity, that, but probably essential to the plot. Sue B
