Not sure what to say?

Harvey was such a great athlete on the track team at Valley High School. I worked out with him on the Triple Jump but could never get close to his record breaking jumps! Such a loss! RIP

Harvie was a very tough competitor. Rest in peace

My dad is a legend, I´m proud of him and all he has done the family he has gave me is a blessing in it self I´m my sister´s and brother and all the family you only get 1 family love you all. Tony.

Yes for sure Harvey was one of the kindest soft spoken people you'd ever meet... So much fun and lots of laughs we had through the years .football and on the track team..The man was built like a muscular Roman statue, though he never lifted weights. I've watched him jump flat footed from the ground to the bed of stake truck, dunk a basketball ., the ball rolling down from his hand, and putting it through the net with his elbow, was there seeing him jump OUT the long jump box, and the triple...

First of all it was his smile that you noticed. Then if you saw him triple jump one would wonder if he didn´t have a cape under his shirt. If you meet him on the street he always had that smile an a hand shake for you. R.I.P Sir Joseph Kissel

I was privileged to know Harvie during my high school years at Valley High. He was an ideal teammate on our basketball squad. Always ready to flash his broad smile and offer words of encouragement. I could find no mean bone in his body. Whether he was playing or sitting on the bench, Harvie was the same warm and humble individual. May he enjoy the loving embrace of Jesus for all eternity.

RIP Harvie

My deepest condolences to Angi and her family. Harv was always kind and always met me with a smile. He was a unique talent and one of my heros growing up. RIP and God Speed.
