Not sure what to say?

Hap was an great artist and had a great sense of humor. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

To Haps Family,

Hap and Joan were dear Goshen
neighbors, separated by one road.
Our fondest memories of Hap were
visits to his studio on Sears Road
with our daughters. He would proudly
show us his latest works of art. On each visit, our girls would learn some technique from the master teacher!

Hap is now with his beautiful Joan.
His spirit of generosity and welcoming will never leave us!

We never had a traditional father-son relationship but I still loved you and looked forward to seeing you when you came by. Over the years I always knew you were there should I ever needed you. May you rest in peace.

My son and I worked for Hap and Joan many, many times. We always joked that they were ALWAYS the brightest part of our days.
May they share the greatest of peace now that they're together again.
Your old Handymen, Jim & Tom
