Betty, Sandra, Cheryl, Heather, so sad to hear of Uncle harold's passing. So many good times, funny stories to remember. Wish I could be there to share some of them. Always the practical joker -Last time we visited, he was proud of his new job as a census taker- worked for the township, only on warm, sunny days. Had to go out on his front lawn, sit in his lawn chair and count worms. Take care, give everyone a hug from us.
