Dear Grace, Karla & Harold: I have many fond memories of your husband and dad when our family would go boating with you in the summers of the 1960's. My dad, Paul Geyer, worked with Harold at Westinghouse. He was fortunate to have a friend and co-worker like your dad.
May you be blessed with peace and comfort as you recall all the fond memories you have together with your dad. He had a very kind heart.
