Not sure what to say?

I have lost both my parents to cancer. My prays are with your family during these stressful times. Like me I know you long for the day with god will bring about an end to all suffering and pain, including death. Rev 21:4

I'm very sorry for your loss. I recently endured a tragic loss of my own. What helped me was God's word, The Bible. Ecclesiastes 3: 1,4 tells us it's ok to weep. Grief big or small is expected and it helps your body to release much unneeded stress and anxiety for your loss is great. God does have a plan for us because of his love for us.

He will be greatly missed for his delicious bbq and crackling cornbread. Our prayers are with the family.

I offer my sympathy to the Hembree family. It was over 50 years ago when my dad took mom and me to Harold's on Friday nights to eat some wonderful BBQ. We really enjoyed that. Since then I have raised a family and Harold's BBQ has been one of our family enjoyments.

We will all miss Mr. Harold. I grew up in Cabbage Town and eating at Harold's. My dad (Tom Hulon) was a produce salesman in the area and he started me on BBQ at Harold's in early 50's and I never quit. He will be missed greatly. One good thing is he can still be seen on The Food Network show "The best BBQ places" Saw it 2 weeks ago again.

I lived on McDonough Bvd from pre teen to adulthood and really considered it a treat to go to Harold's BBQ. My sympathy for the family and friends.

You will be missed and your family is in our prayers!

My sincerest sympathy to all in the Hembree family.

I have always been very proud of my long time relationship with Harold's Bar-B-Que because of two important events. First, it was one of my first jobs as a teenager and second, being a part of the family (cousin). Harold was always completely dedicated to the business but most importantly dedicated to his family. I have missed seeing him at the register in the last six months but I know that he has now joined his family in heaven and is suffering no more. My sincere condolences to the...
