Such a nice man. Loved to talk with him, about anything, he had so much knowledge. His great sense of humor and kindness will be missed. Rest well my friend.

We petted whales and flew around Baja together. We even got to go to Oshkosh. Harrol was tough as tungsten on the outside and soft as a marshmallow on the inside. Now I will complain twice as much about Barack to make up for Harrol.

Harrol for most of my life you were a father figure to me and I always knew there was nothing you would not do for me. I am relieved you are not in pain anymore but I will so miss our dinners in Tucson when I visited. I love you dearly. Dawn.
