So sorry to hear of Uncle Harold’s passing. He was a fine man and a pleasure to be around. I will cherish good memories of Uncle Harold and Aunt Revada. The last time I saw him was in Mom’s kitchen after dad passed away and he was busy cracking open nuts for a snack. Sincerely, Karen and the boys. xo
