To the Alfond Family: Thank you for sharing Harold's life with Maine, New England, and the Nation. In the words of Winston Churchill, he made a living by what he earned, and a life by what he gave. GBA. Cathy and Jim Pierce

I was very honored to have met Mr Alfond and for my son, Shane to have spent time with him. He was certainly a good role model and a friend to all who were lucky enough to meet him. He'll be sadly missed.
