I just wanted to express our deep sorrow with you over the loss of Harold. We miss very much all those nights of playing cards and of me and Harold always winning ;) It was a joy to serve with him at Brushy Fork Baptist. Sorry we can't be there for the funeral. You and the family are in our prayers and we miss Harold very much.
In Christ,
