I'm so sorry to hear of Harvey’s passing. Loosing a loved one is never easy. I lost my dad in 2010, and my mom in 2012. After my losses, reading Revelation 21:3,4 gave me real comfort. It says: And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. I hope reading these verses also give you comfort during this difficult time. GW
Uncle Harvey was such a quiet loving man. Soft spoken but his words had such an impact. Some of my fondest memories are of spending my childhood summers at my aunts house drinking coffee with uncle Harvey. I thought I was somebody because he let me drink coffee with him. There will never be another man as special to fill the hole he has left. Even though his body is gone, it was only a shell that held a spirit that was burning too bright to stay here. He will forever be with us in spirit. â¤ï¸
