Hi Dad , we hope you're having fun. We miss you alot. Tell Grandpa Cecil and Grandma Reba we send them hugs. I hope that I made you proud. I guess you can see the times I have messed up things. I hope you see that is not the man of God I want to be, when I fail. 
We love you so much! 
Thank you, Dad.

Such wonderful memories of Harold and his boys. We are striving to be the men of God that you wanted us to be. Be joyous in The embrace of Father God and find peace.
We love and miss you.

My family has known the Edwards family for many years.  They were always there for us when we needed them with no questions asked.  Harold was always there as our private plumber or to give a ride to school when the bus was not running.  My grandmother adored him and he was a pallbearer when she passed.  He and my father were two of the most gentle and rock solid faithful men that I have ever met.  We will miss him greatly.

We became acquainted with Harold and Phyllis at the time they became a part of the church family at Calvary Presbyterian Church.  It was our pleasure to know them during the time that Albert served as their pastor at Calvary.  Harold was a true disciple, one who lived what he believed.  It was a privilege to know him.

How could I ever find words to share what this gentle, kind, wonderful man means to me?  I am so proud to be his granddaughter and I can only hope to live the kind of life he showed me through his actions.  
You could never find a friendlier, sweeter person, a more loving family man, or a more genuine neighbor and friend.  
I know he will not read this, but if I could say one last thing to him, it would be: you were always proud of me, but I am proud to be your grandchild.  Every time I eat a fresh peach or sorghum on toast, I will think of you.  Every time I walk past roses and dahlias I'll remember the beautiful flowers you cultivated in your garden, and every time I take a walk I'll remember the love you had for simply being outside, enjoying the sunshine and the plants.  
I love you so much, Pepaw.

Dad, I am proud to carry on your name. 
As your first born I wish I could tell you once more how much I appreciate all you did for us. You sacrificed so much so that we could have, and I'm afraid there were a lot of times I was ungrateful and unappreciative. I hope you know how much I loved you and still do. 
I am so glad you can hear again, I bet the angels sound beautiful from your perspective. I love you, and miss you.

I am so proud to be Harold's second son. He always had great joy & pride in the work he did. It seems like we everywhere we would go, he would point out a building he worked on and tell us a story about it. 
I will miss you greatly Dad! Have a Merry Christmas with Jesus, Grandpa Cecil, Grandma Reba, and Aunt Sara. 
I guess Father God just needed someone to help teach the angels how to sing Sacred Harp. 
I love you dad. Thank you for being my dad.

The last thing dad did to me was stick his tongue out at me.  Dad and I would often stick our tongues out at each other to tease each other as a way to show affection.  Before he went to sleep for the last time,  he looked up at me and stuck his tongue out, of course I stuck mine back at him.  I love you dad and am going to miss you greatly.  When I take a long drive in the country,  I know you will be in the passenger seat beside me.
