Harold was so instrumental in leading the way to keep the Southwest Branch Library open and he won the fight; thank goodness for that; it's one of only a few true neighborhood libraries left.

To Gerrie, Ross, and family... I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Harold, such a good and decent man. I remember so many conversations we had together. He gave me great advice and was kind all the time. We have many mutual acquaintances and not a single person has ever said a negative word about him. He will be missed!

Harold was the nicest man. He not only seemed to always have a lot of energy (the positive kind) but also was willing to share it. He truly was a light in the darkness. I will always be thankful that his path crossed with mine.

Dear Geri, Dennis and Ross,
So, sorry to hear about Harold.... I'm sure my dad and the rest of the neighbors were there to welcome him. Praying that God be with you all during this time of loss and may he bless you and try to remember all of the years of love, joy and happiness. You are all in our prayers...
