Lorena F. Harper

We are very sorry that we couldn't be with you in the time of your loss. We send our heartfelt sympathies.

From the Byrd Family (Mrs. Betty Jane Byrd--Barberton, Ohio; Carl Edward Byrd--Seattle, Washington; David Allen Byrd--Lancaster, California; Victor Fitzgerald Byrd--Kent, Washington; and Vera Lee Byrd--South Orange, New Jersey).

I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Mrs. Harper. Our families go way back through the fun and sad times. I feel so blessed to have had her on my mind when I was in Akron last month and given the opportunity to stop by and show my love for the kind words of encouragement and concern she expressed to me during my time of grievance. May the joyful memories of her life keep your family strengthened and always together. MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL!!

To Darlene & the entire Harper Family: I just found out this evening that your mother had passed. I'm truly sorry for your loss, but I believe that she is rejoicing in God's presence, healthy and whole. I haven't seen any of you in more years than I can remember. And I seem to find out about everything of significance that happens in Akron, after-the-fact. I am very sorry for this one, because I would've wanted to have been there. Just know that you are in my prayers.

Although your Mom has now left her mortal body here on earth and is present with the Lord, fond memories of the good times worshipping our Lord together will be long remembered. Family be encouraged, our Lord doeth all things well. He is ultimately in control.

Sorry to hear of your lost. My condolences and sympathy goes out to the family. May God comfort and be with you.

I have fond memories of this family from the Poplar and Bell St. area many, many years ago.
I remember Mrs. Harper as a very kind and warm person who always invited me into her home when I came to play with Darlene, as did the whole family. You all have my deepest sympathy and my prayers for the Lord to comfort you in your hour of bereavement.

Angela & Romel Granny was like the granny I never had, She put me to work and I didn't even expect any thing, she always told me that GOD would bless me and I was blessed. I'm gonna miss her MUCH.

My prayers and condolences are with the family at this time of loss. May God bless your family!

Prayers,
Dee Howard

To the entire Harper Family:

I feel you hurt, and I will continue to pray for all of you. Look to the hills for whence cometh you help, God will give you strenght; just lean and depend on him. God loves you and I do to.
