You couldn’t have met a nicer Grandpa/Grandpa-in-law. I have known him for over 20 years and he was a great man. He treated everyone with respect and was great to talk with and get advice about just about anything. He will be missed.
It is with deepest sympathy that I write this note concerning Harvey. I meet this man when I was 5 and loved him and Gwen from the beginning. They were always there for us kids and I was even blessed with being on the receiving end of a few cokes. Kathleen and I were sweethearts as youngsters and I will never forget Barb and Gary… my thoughts are with you as your father was one incredable man and I for one will miss him, too. Harvey was blessed to have three beautiful children and was loved by all. Thank God for sharing him with us!
Great-Grandpa Harvey was a great man. I am so blessed to be one of his grandchildren and to have such fond memories of him. He loved people, his family and orange jello. I will miss my Great-Grandfather.
