I will never hear the word Jericho and not think of Papaw. He was the finest example I have ever known of a great man that loved the Lord, his family, friends and horses. He set the bar high as a role model and inspiration.
My deepest condolences to the family and friends that loved him so much. In the days ahead may we all find comfort in the many ways he will reside in our hearts. He brought me to the Lord many years ago so he will remain a hero in my heart forever. His booming voice, hearty laugh and breaking out in song filled my heart many times with what Joy could come from a life well lived in faith and praise.
He is where he worked hard his whole life to be. With the Lord. Love and light.

To the family,
When I remember Mr. Harold I remember a fun and caring man. I always loved his stories as he could tell them like no other! He was always a constant while I was growing up at Connell’s Point and seemed like family as he was always close by. Him and Grandaddy shared many a days on the front porch! My heart goes out to you all! â¤ï¸â¤ï¸

As adults I don't think we realize the lasting impression we make on kids. Mr. Harold and Mrs. Doris were so good to me and our entire family. They were the first couple I saw that were in love with each other. They loved God and you kids. I am praying for you.
