Uncle Harold,

When I think of you I remember all the great stories you and Aunt Billie would tell when you came to visit and how you would sometimes mention something you did or thought in your youth that Billie wouldn’t have approved of at the time and how her eyes would widen, and she would say, “HAROLD!!”

Actually it was more like, “HAR-OLD!!” You could make us all laugh.

I dreamed the other night that you came up to me perfectly healthy, gave me a kiss and told me you loved me. I love you too. You will be missed.

Karen, Allison, and Hal,

My thoughts and prayers have been with you and your mom these last few days. Your dad was such a wonderful and sweet man. Words can not express the sorrow that I feel for you all during this time of great loss. However, I can’t help but feel joyful for your dad because he is now in a place that we all hope to be one day and he is giving lots of hugs to his brother and to Kim. Please allow God to be your strength and your guide in the days and weeks to come. Love, Tracey
