I was blessed to have such a man as my Uncle Harold in my life.From my youngest childhood he served as such a positive male role model.He was the one who always made the time to spend with even the youngest of children,and accompany us on our adventures.As I grew older I was able to observe the many ways others benefited from his many fine qualities.A man of great warmth and kindness,compassion,strength and generosity.Ill always remember his wonderful smile and the special glint in his eye.My deepest and heartfelt condolences to all of his family and to all who knew and loved him,as we have all lost a very special Light in our lives.I will continue to carry him with me.Much love Uncle Hal.
