Professor Harps was a soft-spoken, kind-hearted man who would take his time to explain or assist any student who asked it of him. He will be missed.

Dear Margie, You, John and I go a long ways back to Conklin Ave and O'keefe Lane. I am deeply touched by the lost of my friend and classmate. I asked my sister Christmas day when I went to Augusta had she heard or knew anything about John. I was thinking about him but didn't know why. He will be truly missed. May God comfort you and your family during your bereavement. John is at rest, no more pain or sorrows. You will see your love one again.Because of the one who died on Calvalry and was risen from the dead , we too can be risen again unto life. Love you!

Margie & Calvin, what love that Our Father has in both of you to grant John's request unto his death, on this earth and into eternal life with the Lord. We will always hold you both close in our hearts with the love of Jesus for the love and care you gave to Marcus in Baton Rouge, LA.
Family & Friends of John Harps, everything is in The Master's hand, our God, our Father, who sent us His son Jesus, The Christ for our salvation. Let us show Christ like love to everyone we meet as we live in this brief and temporary life on earth that God, in His infinite way created.
God bless you all,
Min. M.G. Heath & Family & In the memory & the Holy Spirit of Rev. J.R. Harris
