I was very sad today to read of Harold's passing. I knew he and Arlene for many years first meeting them through volunteer activities with Aid Association for Lutherans. Then when I managed the volunteer department at LVHN, we re-connected through the Summer Festival. They both were wonderful, caring, generous people and they will be greatly missed. My sincerest sympathy to your family during this difficult time.
