Ruby, I am so sorry to hear of Harvey's passing. He was a delight to know and work with for us at Padco. Never a cross word. He has my respect, my sympathy goes out to you.

Ruby, Helen and John,
I am very sorry to hear about Harvey's passing. I have many very fond memories of him (and all of you) from our high school years and beyond. I'm also sorry I was not aware of this in time to pay my respects to all of you in person while you were sitting.

I was sorry to learn of Harvey's passing. I believe that we were fraternity brothers at Sigma Alpha Mu. I remember him fondly.
May his family suffer no more sorrows.
