We are so sorry to hear about Uncle Harold's death. Our heartfelt sympathy and prayers are with Hal, Michael, and Amy. I wish we could be there for you all.
A memory, that I can still remember, was of meeting Aunt Rosemary and Uncle Harold together was at MaMa and PaPa Davis' house, Uncle Harold had brought Aunt Rosemary over for a visit and I was calling her "Aunt Rosemary" which Uncle Harold thought was funny since he was not engaged yet!
All our love, Michael and Rebecca (Davis) Cole
