We are so honored to have known Harvey. He was such a blessing to every and anyone he met, unassuming, gentle and kind. He was a father figure to many and a substitute grandfather figure to our girls when they were young. We have such fond memories of Harvey and Mary literally driving with us as we moved halfway across the country. We rejoice in his victory as he has entered into Heaven.
