HVA's halls seem empty without you. You were always willing to help me with anything, fix a table, drag a big garbage can down to the classroom on food days, or just coming in to visit me when I worked very late at school. Of all my buddies at HVA you alone bought my son's CD and raved about it. That was very special to me. Thank you for everything. You will be missed buddy!

Tim was a great man! He will be missed at Hardin Valley Academy! I wish I had the chance to actually talk to him. Glad the whole HVA got to be in the same building as him! He is a good good man! And in a better place now.

Dear Pat, I will be thinking of you in this time of sorrow. I have thought of Sue many times before she died and since.And your mother was one of my favorites, she made mashed potatoes with lots of pepper. That was a long time ago. Betty Lebow Yearwood
