Not sure what to say?

I was waiting at the airstrip in Ninilchik for this plane , to go to Anchorage for a music lesson, but the weather was too bad, it couldn't land.

Sorry for your lost .have you ever wondered why we grow old and die? May Rom 5:12 be of comfort to you.

A friend,mentor,colleague,who inspierd me to go into aerial photo surveying.. a man of gerat honesty and principal.

Mr. Galliett,
I read about your life on another FB post. I think your life was a wonderful adventure, and is celebrated by your loving kids. have fun on the other side.

You raised a great set of kids and will be missed.

On several occasions early in my civil engineering career I met Harold or worked with him on some project. It was apparent that he was a gentleman and a man of gracious principle. I developed a considerable fondness and respect for this good man. I wish I had been able to spend more time with him.

My father John Mielke worked with Harold on Elmendorf and spoke highly of him. He talked about a plane crash Harold survived by swimming a considerable distance to safety. When I met Harold later, he also spoke well of Dad, and that confirmed my trust in both of them.

Will miss you Dad. Know that Norman, Roger and me are sharing wonderful stories of our life with you. There are some laughs too.

One of the most principled and dedicated engineers I ever worked with. RIP. Eugene Leavens
