Harry was great. He did business with my father's gas station, and that is where I met Bobby. Bobby, if you see this drop me a line.

Harry was a kind and gentle soul and such a loving husband and father! He was like a father to me during my adolescent years when Cindy and I were best friends! He and Carolyn were some of the best friends my mom, Ruth, ever had, and were always there for her through thick and then. She was grateful for their love and kindness throughout her life and I hope they're all three celebrating in heaven right now, young and free! May you all be forever blessed with your wonderful memories of your dad and mom. They were truly special people!!

I only knew him from eating out at the little restaurant and would go see his dog in the front seat of his truck. What a kind man, he will be greatly missed.

I remember Mr. Russell taking Robert and I to the State fair and many other places when we were kids in the early 70's. He was always very kind to me. I'm sorry for your loss, he will surely be missed.

I am so sorry for the loss of your father he was such a joy to be around I always called him dad.
I am so sorry for the loss of your father. We shared many a fun time. One of his favorite past times recently was going out to dinner and I would join him and his daughter Cindy. We loved hearing his colorful stories of his escapades as a young man and his days in the Navy. Boy did he have some good ones!!! He loved to hunt and had numerous trophies mounted on his walls. I am sure he is riding a horse on a hunting trip right now. Farewell my friend...you will be dearly missed.
Love,
Bobbie Littrell

Harry was a good man and a good boiler man. I have known Harry for about 38 years. We drank coffee several times over those years and talked about boilers. My Condolences to the family.

So sorry for your loss. Harry and my father, Suel Hall were very close friends and business associates for many years. The last time I saw Harry was actually at my father's funeral. Praying for peace and comfort for your entire family during this difficult time.

I have known Harry since the late 70's when I taught some of his children. We have had a business relationship since the late 80's. He has always been a gentleman, sincere, kind and always smiling and joking.
He will be missed
