Yesterday

The best word that comes to mind as I reflect and celebrate the life of Harold Elam was that he was always consistent. He was consistently kind, consistently loving, consistently genuine and consistently authentic.

Harold was a loving husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. His legacy and light will continue to shine and thrive through his family and all who knew him.

May God's merciful hand carry him into eternal peace.

With deepest sympathy and condolences,

Dennis & Gladys Thomas
