I miss my father
August 25, 2009
It feel like I lost a piece of me when Harry left. He was a good friend someone I could call on and just talk about anything with him. It's hard for me right now but everyday I pray for everything to go well with his family and his wife just keep your head up and remember god is watching over yall let peace be with you. I will see my friend in heaven one day and continue to talk to him and laugh.

To: Mrs. Barbara Nelson & Tricia
God has truly called one of his own home to join him and the other angels.
Harry will be dearly missed by all those who loved him and we will missed that smile that he kept upon his face.
Tricia, be strong and remember all the good times that you shared with your brother (you guys were very close).
God Bless,
Sapphire

To Auntie Barbara & Family
My prayers and thoughts are with you during this difficult time of bereavement. I am truly sorry for your loss. You and your family as well as Lil Harry will remain in my heart. I love you auntie Barbara and I pray your strength. I just want to leave this peom with you.
Just Call On Me
I can’t comprehend just how sad you must feel
For the loss of someone you love.
This sorrowful time must still feel unreal
And you’re looking for strength from above.
I hope, from my heart, that your pain will decrease,
That your spirit will gain strength again,
And I pray that your faith will create inner peace
And that God will send blessings--Amen.
Till then, if you need me to lighten your load,
I’m waiting to come to your aid.
Just call on me, and I’ll walk down that road,
Until the dark times start to fade.
Deep condolences,

May God give you and your Family strength thru
these tuff times. Harry was a wonderful friend
of mine and co-worker. He would give you his last if he knew it would help you. A real stand-up man who I was proud to call my friend and brother.
God Bless!!!

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

From your Brother in Good Luck Lodge #1
I SEE YOU'VE TRAVELED SOME
Wherever you may chance to be
Wherever you may roam,
Far away in foreign lands;
Or just at Home Sweet Home;
It always gives you pleasure,
it makes your heart strings hum
Just to hear the words of cheer,
"I see you've traveled some."
When you get a brother's greeting,
And he takes you by the hand,
It thrills you with a feeling
that you cannot understand,
You feel that bond of brotherhood
that tie that's sure to come
When you hear him say in a friendly way
"I see you've traveled some."
And if you are a stranger,
In strange lands all alone
If fate has left you stranded
Dead broke and far from home,
It thrills you--makes you numb,
When he says with a grip of fellowship,
"I see you've traveled some."
And when your final summons comes,
To take a last long trip,
Adorned with Lambskins Apron White
and gems of fellowship
The tiler at the Golden Gate,
With square and rule and plumb
Will size up your pin and say "Walk In",
"I see you've traveled some."

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
August 7, 2009
My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
