Miss Ida, Nathan and Becky,

We just got word of Mr. Book's passing, and just wanted to send our condolences and sympathy. Your father was a very good man and he always treated us with the greatest respect and had a interesting sense of humor with his jokes. We will miss him dearly when we come into the store for our cheese and snacksticks. As believers in Jesus Christ we know that your father is in the best of company. Our prayers are with you and your family.

To the Book family - I was saddened to receive word from my wife today about your loss. It is a loss for the entire community. When we bought our house years ago, I remember that Harry was one of the first people we met in town. As we have come and gone from our overseas assignments through the years, Harry was always there at the store when we returned, giving us a sense of timeless continuity and adding to the feeling of "home". He was a man that I respected for his unmatched work ethic....

Probably the best part for me when stopping by Books Market, was the conversation with Harry. He was a gentleman with a great sense of humor and always a pleasure to talk with. He will certainly be missed by all that know him.
