I was really sad to see the paper the other day and to see Harold passed away. Harold and I had a good time razzing each other when we shared an office at Cushman. There wasn’t much that was off the table. He once was in on a prank where I was given strap on blocks for the bottom of my shoes so I could be as tall as everyone else. He could always expect some kind of device from me to clean out his snowblower during the winter so he wouldn’t put his fingers in it again. We always worked but we really had a great time. I always told him how much I admired Sharon for putting up with him and she must be some kind of saint. We had a lot of laughs and a lot of great memories. He will be missed.

I worked for Harold in the 1980s. He was one of the best bosses that I ever had. He was strict but you knew he cared a lot about his employees. My sympathies to you and your family.
