Edward Perry "Ned" Harding

In addition to being a wonderful man, Ned Harding was a visionary. As he walked down the long hall at Konica from his office toward the cafeteria tapping the wall with his pencil, I was always thinking that that tapping was his brain ticking! A great man who took the time to know your name and ask about your family. I will always remember him with fond memories. May his memory be a blessing to his entire family and all those who knew him.

Mr. Harding was quite an unusual guy that ran a great company-Bicknell to Konica.
I think some of my best memories come from the yearly visits to him with birthday chocolates, he loved those caramels!
You've lived quite a life, rest well. May God comfort your family and friends.

Mr. Harding was an extremely nice man. I'll never forget the day I was in his office at Bicknell and he asked me if I had a loupe. When I replied no, he opened his desk drawer and gave me one. I still have that loupe. He was a great man.

Mr Harding ALWAYS greeted me with a hello and a smile and asked how I was doing when I would drop by his house in Maine. He was a very nice person.

I will always remember Mr. Harding as he would pass you in the hallway at Bicknell & would know you by name & have a hello no matter what time of day.
