10 Condolences for “Harold Harmon”

  1. Bill Billie Forney

    Donna, Mike, Debbie, Cindy. It’s been many years since we all lived at Cambria. Thinking of you and your family reminds me of hearing you sing in the kitchen, Harold and the Barnstormer Chevy II, Mike and I having a tree house behind the bankboard and leaning against the roof of the garage. I’ll always remember Harold for his smile and energy. Seems like he was always doing something. Of course I’ll remember him letting Mike and I have it for doing things that only boys seem to think of doing. Please accept our prayer for your family in this time of telling Harold goodbye. Bill and Billie Forney
