He was the patriarch of a God-fearing family. SOLI DEO GLORIA Memorial Service to be held and Calvary Temple, 6801 Roosevelt Way N.E., Seattle Wa. on Friday May 14th at 2:00 p.m.

Greetings! We are not able to attend the service but wish to express our sadness for Harolds illness and passing, yet our joy that he is now with the Lord, our Savior. I have rememberances from years past of the many times our family would come to visit Uncle Warren & Auntie Pat's when your family would also be over to visit. We also would get to see all of you whenever we came up and visited everyone at Calvary Temple church. "Uncle Harold" always seemed to be genuinely interested in what all of us were up to, and I really liked him too. I saw our cousin Todd at my mother's 80th birthday. He told me Harold had passed on, but he had gotten to see him shortly before. We are sorry for your loss but believe the Lord will give you strength and encouragement in the days to come.
