Not sure what to say?

To all who knew him,
My father, Dr. Harmon E. Holverson, was indeed, a brilliant man, who, contributed much to the world of medicine. He also taught me that anything in life worth having takes hard work, perseverance, and a sincere passion for whatever I choose to pursue in this life. For this, I'm a better person for having known him.
Sincerely, Holly F. Holverson and Phil Walker (my commonlaw husband of nearly 20 years)

Heart felt sympathy to the family of Dr. HOLVERSON. I have thought of him often over the years. He delivered all four of our children between 1956 and 1962. We drove from Meridian to Emmett for the last two.

To this day I have not found a Dr. that can compare. What an honor to have known him.

Dear Yvonne, What a great loss for you and for all of his friends and colleagues. He truly has left this world a better place for his having been among us.

Yvonne,
Joe and I are so deeply saddened to learn of Harmon's passing. I am so very sorry for your loss. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Love, Elizabeth

Yvonne
& Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you all in your time of grief.

Yvonne and family:

I am greatly saddened to hear of Harmon's passing. My daughter, Krystle is the one who told me just yesterday (May 1, 2007). He was an amazing person and I enjoyed the short time I worked for him. I learned a lot and always cherished the stories he would tell about his life, career, family. My thoughts and prayers are with you!!!! HUGS!!!!!!

Dear Yvonne, Holly, Jeff, and all the Family. We are so very sad to learn of Harmon's passing. I have many great memories of visits, the Holverson home and Cabin. Harmon's niece, Mary Lee and Vince Tripi

Idaho has lost a real “gem.”

Dynamic, eloquent, and kind, Dr. H. loved medicine, fine food, fast cars, and most of all people. To his patients, he was healer, confidant, and friend, although – because he cared – he could be stern with those who would not follow “doctor’s orders.”

He could have lived anywhere, done anything; yet he chose to stay in our small town and our lives are better because he passed this way.

I was sad to hear of Dr. Holverson's passing. He was my doctor through high school, and was our family doctor for many years.

I wish peace and best withes to his family and friends.

Jeff, I'm very sorry for your loss.
