We share in your lost. I know there are no words to be said when a member of the family is no longer able to share in the conversation nor able to take their place at the table. No one can filled that space. We will hold each of you up in prayers. We remember Harold in tears and conversation and how much he has meant to those of the family and friends across the years of his life.
