Giovanna and family, I'm so sorry for your great loss. I know you are a very close family and I know how hard it is to loose someone you love so much! May God give you all the strength to help you get through.

The Spicer Family,
Please accept my heartfelt condolenses. Harvey was a good friend and a straight-up guy you could depend on. He often commented that he had just as many friends in Smithfield (where he delivered mail) as in his own city where he lived...friends who will miss him dearly...as I will. Anchors Aweigh!
