Not sure what to say?

As a former neighbor, Harlan was always kind to our family. My four sons so enjoyed our neighborhood. May his beloved family find comfort in past joys and memories. In thoughts and prayers.

Merridee, I'm so very sorry to learn of the loss of your beloved Harley. Holding you in my thoughts and prayers. May loving memories provide comfort and strength at this difficult time. Susan Carlile

Remembering one of the best people I know. Harley or what I liked to called him affectionately Snarley, was a kind soul. His laugh and smile was contagious! He was always helping people and there was no favor too big that he wasn´t willing to help. You will be missed by so many. Thank you for the memories.

I´m so sorry to see this. Harlan was such a good man. So many good memories of how much he meant to my Mom Clara Wagner. God be with you all.

Harley was the best. To the man who helped me remodel my kitchen and never asked for anything in return except a thermos of coffee!

He was one of the best and will be missed by all that new him. God speed Har-Har.

Harlan was the handyman in a duplex where I used to live. Whenever he came to fix something, we always had a nice conversation and a good laugh! He was funny guy and very good natured! God rest his soul!

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

What a wonderful neighbor and friend!
