Harold M. Colvin and I were very good friends. This was back in the mid 60's. Harold help me get my first two jobs. A manufacturing plant in Springfield and an assembly job in Detroit, Michigan. I remember his family on Euclid St. and his father who wanted the best for his family. Harold was very instrumental in me listening, learning and appreciating jazz. I still cherish and appreciate the memories we shared throughout the years.. May God's blessings and peace be with all who knew and remember the Colvin Family.
