I know that even though you have a loss, you still have some great memories. I hope those memories will give you comfort in knowing God is with you and your family lean on him in your time of sorrow.

I was very sorry to hear about Harold's passing. We were introduced by a mutual acquaintance over 20 years ago and he was my "special" friend for a number of years. I enjoyed our lunches and dinners as we shared many a good bottle of wine and lots of laughs together. Harold loved to share bawdy jokes & stories with me and always signed his e-mails with "Fondly Harold". My condolences go out to his son and daughter-in-law, whom I had the pleasure of meeting many years ago. Rest in Peace my friend. You will be missed.

I first met Harold in 1958 while working for Zaret Bldg Corp as a secretary and we used his armored car service, Harold and I became good friends meeting monthly for lunch (only one hour!) and speaking almost daily revealing each others secrets. Your cousin Cynthia and I will honor your invitation to Joe's colossal stone crabs but u will have to wait for us as we will arrive on the late shift. In the meantime, REST IN PEACE DEAR FRIEND.

So saddened to hear of Harold's passing. Harold's father, Ben, and my father, Ben, were first cousins and grew up together. Their mothers were sisters. We lived next door to Ben and his wife Joan in Miami Beach from 1941 until they moved to North Bay Road, and were friendly with Helene, Harold and the family. As young adults and through these many years, my late husband, Mickey and I were in touch. Life was always interesting.
Rest in peace, Cousin.

For many years I had the priviledge of knowing Harold, in my early days in bussiness in Coral Gables, he was one of my bigest suporters. As I moved on, he always faollow me in the tree restaurants I have. He was very sharp when it came down to wines....We at Caffe Abbracci will miss him. Rest in peace Harold. From the Family of Caffe Abbracci to the Gaines Family.
