I am deeply saddened to hear about the loss of Harold, Bea, and Derrick. Harold taught me scuba diving in 1964 and I was a member with him of the Hot Springs Divers. He worked for the Arkansas school book company and my dad was superintendent in Hot Springs and when he found out, Harold was a diver. He recommended me to him for instruction. John Wilson, John Schmidt, Jimmy Collier and I all learned to dive from Harold. I left Hot Springs in 1967 when I joined the army and never returned, but I corresponded with Harold over the years in my young life. The great role models that I remember are all of my coaches from Southwest and Hot Springs high and Harold Nash may you take some comfort in our creator’s promise of everlasting life
We are so sorry for your loss! Prayers for God’s love and comfort to surround and strengthen you.
Terry, I am so sorry. My prayers are with you. Now he and your Mom can be together again. He grieved for her so much or we wouldn’t have meet.
Terri,
So Sorry For Your Loss, Please Know You and Your Family are in our Prayers.
Regrets again from all my family to all of your family. Gladys Damonte
So sorry to hear about your dad and your brother. I think of y’all often. I remember us growing up in Hot Springs together and you and I would play football with the boys. Harold was there when we had our boat accident and he recovered mom’s glasses from the bottom of lake Ouachita. Great memories!!
Terry and family, I am so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
