To the family: Your dad/grandad was a wonderful, godly man who will be greatly missed. He wore a perpetual smile even when he was not feeling well. Many widow ladies at Temple Baptist Church were blessed by his "handy-man" abilities. He was always ready to lend a helping hand, serving others despite his aching back. May the Lord bless each of you daughters and your families in the days and years ahead without your dear dad. Brother Harvey will never be forgotten.
In His love and ours, Jerry & Sue Kidd

I was very sorry to hear of Harvey’s passing. Harvey worked for me at BuyRite in Salem. He was one of my very favorite employees in all my years of managing. Harvey was just an overall exceptional person and I know will be greatly missed by all who knew him. I will not attend the funeral only because of current circumstances but his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
