Harold was a beautiful person who was loved by all who had the privledge of knowing him and will be deeply missed by all. He always had a kind word to say, always a positive attitude, truly a remarkable man. I was fortunate to be able to play music with Harold on many occasions and have so many fond memories of our times hanging out together. His playing reflected the kind of person he was - warm, sensitive, unselfish, always uplifting and encouraging. One of Toledo's finest musicians!
My deepest sympathy and condolences to you Nancy and all of your family. Praying God's peace and love for you at this time.
