just a great guy   an old railroad  buddy   solely missed 

My condolences to the Adams family, the loss of a good man.
I met Harold the fall of 80 as he was my Steward on my first training trip in the Diner. Shared his experiences and encouraged me to absorb the ups & downs of passenger rail services and a long career could be possible. I eventually changed departments but we were colleagues having moments before or after most of his trips. Still would run into each other after his retirement. I viewed the service today recalling cherished memories, thanks for the opportunity!  Lou Walsh ( VIA retiree 2018)

His laughter…
We will always remember his laughter.
Like a cascade running down the hill on a warm summer day.
Like the joy and happiness that he spread around him.
We will always cherish all the precious and unique moments we shared with him.In Halifax, in Montreal, on the phone, on FaceTime…
We saved your voice messages and we smile when we hear you say : "Katherine, you’re never home! It’s your uncle Harold calling just to say hello…"
Have a safe trip home to the light uncle Harold.
Although we will miss you, there is laughter, a smile inside of us where we can find you. 
I know aunt Catherine, my father, my aunt and uncles will be so happy to hear you laugh again up there. 
Thank you for everything and mostly for being you. 
To his children, my cousins , Justin, Stefan, Susan, Wayne, Angie and Shonna, we love you.
Kindest thoughts for all of our family and for all of his friends. 
Katherine, Laurent and Charlot

I'm heartbroken at the loss of "Uncle" Harold. When I was a little girl visiting Creighton Street I was always happy when uncle Harold was there. He always had a smile and took the time to talk to me and ask me about what was going on. As I became a young woman, he never changed, but saw his kindness and genuine nature for what it was. His kind words never stopped. His interest in what I was up to was always there. He was supportive when I lost my dad even though he was hurting too. I loved him very much and I will miss that smile.
My heartfelt condolences to all Harold's children and everyone else who lost him as a loved one, friend, mentor or acquaintance.  He made the world a bit better for all of us. Take care of each other and lots of love.

Keith Gabriel and Family 



Condolences to all family members.
God didn't promise days without pain, 
Laughter without sorrow,
Sun without rain, 
But he did promise you strength for the day
Comfort for the tears
And light for the way!

May God Bless you!


My condolences to the Adams family on behalf of the Mentis family.
I would like to start by saying your father was a very exceptional man and one of a kind.  I met you so many years ago growing up with your children. Not knowing anything at all but you being Mr Adams to me.  From your children to their friends you made us all feel special.  Never knowing how close we would become over the years you being best friends with my uncle, and I with Susie Q.. You exemplify the facts of a good man to all the people around you from far and near.  I thank you for sharing your kindness with the Mentis and Smith family.  We will cherish every memory for years to come.  My favourite will be us dancing up a storm in Susie Q backyard one summer.   Mentis Family❤️  RIHP

On behalf of our Pastor Rev. Dr. Rhonda Britton,  and the members of New Horizons Baptist Church, 

We extend condolences to the family of Brother Harold Adams.
We pray God grants you comfort and peace of mind knowing that our God will never leave you or forsake you.

Harold played a key role in my life and was the dad I never had.  He was the most positive and encouraging person I have ever known.  He was there through the most difficult times and walked me through it with neverending faith.   His belief in doing what is only right despite the lures of wrong was endlessly impressive to all around him.  I will always be mindful of how he encouraged me to do the right thing by way of maintaining faith and trust in God.  I am so thankful to have known him for the short time I have and I will never forget our long life conversations and our mutual belief in God.  He will always be in my heart and forever missed.  My sincerest condolences to the family, you were blessed to have had him as your father, uncle, grandfather and friend.  Paul Lorde

Dear Adams Family:
Please accept my sincere condolences on Harold's passing.  He was always a pleasant and kind person and it was a pleasure to enjoy his company when we had our whist tournaments.  My partner and I were disappointed if we didn't get the opportunity to play against him.  Always a gentleman. He will be missed. 
Beverley Daye

Uncle Harold. This one is hard. I just want to say thank you. Thank you for loving my Aunt Catherine like you did. For loving her family like you did. For always being there for me to chat and feel encouraged by you. For the meals. For how much you displayed your love for God even the last time we talked a few weeks ago. I knew you were suffering and you kept reminding me how good God had been to you. We prayed together over the phone and I felt so comfortable. I'm sorry this COVID stuff made it so I couldn't see you for so long and that I can't be present to celebrate your life. I'm thankful that you have Aunt Catherine and Puppy already in Heaven waiting for you. I'm thankful I got to experience you. I miss you big time.
To Uncle Harold's family. Thanks for sharing your Dad with us. He was a special person and a lot of us are better for knowing him. I love him and I love y'all. 
Rest Well Unc!!!

Sending our condolences, Harold was a kind man, I will remember him for his words of encouragement, Our thoughts and prayers are with you ,may the memories you hold dear bring you comfort God Bless.

I send my love and condolences at this time. I enjoyed meeting your dad and visiting with him for the short time i had him as a client.  May he rest in peace and no more pain.

To my dear Cousins, Shonna, Susan, Wayne, Angie, Justin and Stefan.
Heartfelt condolences to you all on the passing of your Dad, and a wonderful Uncle. Uncle Harold's kindness to me from the time I was a child helped create a special bond, he was always my advocate.  From walking me down the aisle at my wedding, our wonderful trip to the Cabot Trail, and the generous hospitality shown to us on our many return visits to Nova Scotia. He was a proud Maritimer and was always eager to show us around the improvements in the growing City of Halifax.  Uncle Harold's love, assistance,  and compassion shown to my Mother, his Sister Dorothy, in her final days will never be forgotten, and could never be repaid.  These memories will be cherished forever.  Thank you for sharing your Dad with me, sharing your Dad with us. 
It is said that "Grief is the price we pay for love",  and you know that your Dad was much loved by Lawrence and myself.
To have known him was to have loved him.
May he now rest in eternal peace in the Comforter's arms.

Roxanne and Lawrence Ross xoxoxo

My condolences to Harold’s family. I know he will be dearly missed. Harold came to my family home often and was there for my mom throughout her life and always visited her (Aunt Leona) at Parkland. He was a kind and gentle man; always pleasant and caring, and his smile was infectious. At this very sad time, may you take comfort  in the precious memories you share of him, and know that his love will embrace you forever. God comfort you at this time.

My heartfelt condolences to the Family of Harold Adams.

I have shared many personal experiences with Harold and his family over the years. The most memorable...being chosen as bridesmaid in one of his matrimonial exchanges; the  other was winning a "Dancing Contest" with Harold at Gerrish Street Hall in our teen years!

Soft spoken, kind and genuine is how I will always remember him.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Family in your time of Sorrow.

Hughie and I always agreed that Harold was one of the nicest men
we have ever known and to top it off he was married to Hughie's

Love you Harold and know you are in God's hands now.
