Harry G. Haskell Jr.

To the Haskell family, my most sincere and deepest prayers that this past year has gone well with you. A sense of loss lingers still but the strength and character with which your father raised you will provide the needed stamina to rise above your emotion, especially on those dark nights when you hear a word, a phrase, or just a thought that brings him back for just a moment, to continue the stewardship of the world he cared for so much. A world he made an mark in for ever.

My...

My condolences to the family H on the passing of your father. His contributions to the country have been long lasting! Bernie loved your dad and always spoke highly of him.

A great man. I am proud to have known him.

Uncle Hal, as I knew him, made an indelible impression on me as a young teen when I first met him and his oldest son, Kim, in the early 1960s. Larger than life in so many ways, Hal embraced life with such gusto and good humor. He managed to inculcate those same aptitudes in all of his children, and I imagine, his and Mimi's many grandchildren. My father, a close friend of Hal's, took me along on several father/son outings with Hal and Kim, memories I cherish to this day. Whether it was...

One of Delaware's best has transitioned to a better place. God bless him.

Hal Haskell was a very special individual with an unmatched love for his country, state and, especially his city. He wanted to help disadvantaged young people have the opportunity for higher education and a brighter future....and he did. He had a quick wit and a wonderful sense of humor. His support helped launch my political 'career' and I am grateful to have known him.

Had I known of your passing sooner, I would have been in attendance at the service. The Mayor, as I'll always remember you, was my boss from 1969 through 1972. You were a leader of the first order and a friend.

Please allow me to extend my most sincere condolences to the Haskell family. Mr. Haskell was a gentleman and a rare individual.

God Bless, Tom Bullen
