What a great man! He sold me ( well my parents) :) my first cowboy boots and may pairs of boots and shoes after that! I loved to go in and just talk to Mr. Harness when I would come home for a visit from college. My deepest sympathy to the family. Sending prayers of peace and comfort as go through this difficult time. Love to all. Rhonda
