My deepest sympathy to the family of Harrld Jones. I met Harold many, many years ago when he and Jan were together. In fact, he introduced me to Jan and for that alone I owe him a great debt. Harold was always fun and ready for anything! His unpredictable, laid back approach to life was contagious and made him many friends throughout the years. May he rest in Peace.

I was very shocked and so saddened to hear about Harold. I had spent some time with him at my Father's

(Harold's Uncle Jesse's) I had just goten out of the hospital. I will always remember his wit and his beautiful blue eyes. We were the baby's of the grandchildren and closest in age. I will miss him dearly. All my love goes out to Mickey, Larry, Carolyn and Martha. I Am unable to attend the service for health reasons, but they are all in my prayers. I love you all.

Dear Larry and Mickey,

Please accept my deepest sympathy for the loss of Harold. I remember you folks from Bishop England.

I met Harold many years ago. Although I was ten years his senior, we had a great friendship. I recently helped him with a couple of electrical jobs. He had a big heart and always willing to drop everything to help anybody.

Just like me and a bunch of other people, Harold made mistakes in life. But I know without a doubt, he is up there with our Lord and is free from pain.

Do to a medical problem, I am not able to come to the services, please forgive me.

God bless you and your family. You all will be in my prays.

My childhood memories of Harold at the Cathedral will always be cherished. I remember going to the movies for a dime and afterward going up on the roof and doing what we called building hopping. The early years with Harold were always an adventure.

Harold was a dear person and friend. I met him through his sister Martha and liked him immediately. He had a big heart and gave me a vacuum cleaner for helping him move. He was always wanting to do something for you if you did something to help him. He adored his dog Jonsey. Harold will be sadly missed and remembered kindly and lovingly by his friends.
