Sheila, I am truly saddened by the passing of my friend Hart. We go back many years, and the memories and great times we were lucky enough to share together will never be forgotten.Water skiing, scuba diving,camping, beer drinking, those were the days.
A better friend you could not ask for, and my heart goes out to the family.

Sheila, I am so sorry to hear about John. He was definitely unique and one of a kind and a lover of life. How he got you my darling is still a mystery. You and John are certainly two of my favorite and fondest from our BASF days. I hurt for you and the family but for John, it is a time of rejoicing. We are never ready, nor willing, to let our loved ones go but as Christians, we know that a much better place is prepared and ready when God makes the call to come home. Please know that you have my heartfelt sympathy and love and that you and the family are and will be in my prayers. I love you Dear. Larry Brazell (3315 Hwy 282, Chatsworth, GA)

Sheila,
You and I have never met but I wanted to say how sorry I am to hear of Hartwell's passing. He and I attended school together from primay school through graduation and were very close friends through high school. We often spoent nights at each other's homes and God only knows the miles we racked up driving aimlessly around Williamsburg. I had not seen him in a long time but we did have a rather lengthy conversation by phone last summer. I was trying to persuade him to attend our class reunion. Though I had not seen Hartwell in years I will miss him. Please know you are in my prayers and I wish you well.

Shelia, Elwood and Joyce,
I am so saddened to hear of Hartwell's passing. I barely remember him when I was growing up since he was older and we had nothing in common. I did, however, get to know him when I was going to school at Riverside Hospital. I visited him often on weekends. He was fun to be around and gave me a nice break from studying. He sure loved cars. I tried to buy a Trans Am from him. I was so excited about it and he let me drive it home - but Dad said no. I never got over it.
I haden't seen him in a long time, but I frequently asked Mom about him. I'll always remember those visits and the good times we had getting to know each other as grownups.
May God's love comfort you during this difficult time.

Shelia, I remember Hartwell from my earliest days when we would vist Aunt Mildred and Uncle Holland. Hartwell was ten years older than me which made him seem like a grown-up in my my young eyes. I bought my first car from him, of course; it had a V8 engine and 4-on-the-floor. I loved it! The cops loved me! I'm so sorry to hear of his passing, I'll always have special memories of him. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
