I am writing this to honor the life of Uncle Harold. He was a beacon of light for everyone he would encounter. When I was ten years old, he and his family took me to the original Batman movie at the Comet Drive-In. Harold owned a red Chevy convertible, and I was on cloud nine going to the Drive-In in that classic car! We also went to the Philadelphia Zoo, and went fishing quite a bit just around home in the Paradise area, to name a few of the happy memories. His work ethic was of epic proportions, and his exceptional gift of assisting anyone in need preceded his kind reputation. Harold will be fondly remembered for his sense of humor, charmed personality, humility, generosity, and for the extraordinary person we all dearly loved.💜🎣

I worked with this wonderful man for 7 years. From the day I started not knowing anybody came up to me and gave me this awesome smile. Made me feel like I was somebody and that I had a friend in the company. Friendship became more as a father figure to me after losing my father. I will miss him and will always think of him. Ernie
