Not sure what to say?

Harless hired me as in attorney in The 1970s in the enforcement division at the US environmental protection agency. I think I was the first woman he had hired and it was a bold move on his part. He was an excellent boss. My dad was also a sailor and he and I visited Harless a few times after he had moved to the Houston area. My condolences to all the family. I know you have lost a dear friend and supporter. Letitia Zumwalt Paul

To the Benthul family:
I was a student at South Ward School in Longview when Mr HE Benthul was principal; finished 7th grade in 1946. I never knew Mr Benthul's family, but I recall having liked Mr B as our principal.
I just by chance saw this obituary today in The Dallas News and it brought back memories of South Ward.
I extend my condolences to your family on your loss.

For Harless's family - I am sorry for your loss. I hope you feel comforted by the wonderful life that he had. I am an attorney friend of his From Associated Builders & Contractors. He was very distinguished in his field. Most of all he was a gentleman, a good friend, good company, and a wise and ethical person.
