    I just learned of Harold’s passing today and I am unable to attend the funeral. I knew Harold through my parents Bill & Ilene Abram. Harold graciously let my father farm a piece of land behind his home in Lucan on Marlene St. Harold used to come over for friendly visits with his former wife Doris. He was always so pleasant and full of smiles and so tall!
    May your memories in your heart comfort you during this time of sadness. We offer our sympathies to all the family.

    We wish to express our condolences to the members of Harold’s family. We were fortunate to know Harold and Jean as neighbours across the street on Hunt Village Crescent in London. We remember Harold as a fellow who always had a twinkle in his eye as he ambled over to chat.

    I was sorry to hear that your father passed away Marlene. It is difficult to say goodbye to one you love; a father who loved you too. However, as a Christian, we know that he has gone to a place of glory and is in the presence of his Lord. In the coming days, let the memories you have made over the years bring you comfort and know that he will always be in your heart.
