Harlan was a true renaissance man who was a great communicator. Talking to a group of kids on the streets of Oakland, to pitching a proposal for the Oakland Police Activities league. He was an award winning photographer of landscapes and street scenes, and a good friend. RIP Harlan.

It is nice to hear what my cousin, Harlan, became as he grew older. We were close growing up, but then only stayed in touch. He was a special person. I will miss him.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always. Rest In Peace uncle.

Harlan was my brother a very intelligent guy. I admired his ability to keep on learning. I often wondered why he received all the smarts Love you and miss you Until we meet again always your sister Linda

I met Harlan when I started working for the DOJ, Division of Gambling Control. He was a good and intelligent man with a sense of humor. After he retired, I would run into him at the local stores in Greenhaven and he always had something witty to say. He will be missed. My condolences to the Goodson family.

Respectfully,

Celebrating a life well lived. Once OPD, always OPD. Rest in Peace, Brother.

All of us that knew him at the Oakland Police Department thought a lot of Harlan. I'm glad his career went so well as a lawyer. My sincere condolences to the family.
