I pray for comfort and peace for the so many family and friends he leaves behind. I pray that we celebrate his life and keep his memories alive in our hearts. May God keep us all in His perfect peace! Amen🙏

Growing up in the sixties within a close knit family, it never crossed my mind that we would endure such  heart breaking times.  Our parents, brother, uncle, aunts and cousins have all passed away and now another brother, Harvey.  Who can help us through all of this heartbreak, but God.  I remember the times when I would let Harvey as a little lad sit in my lap and steer the car to help me drive home from church.  Another fond memory is when Harvey, with Brashey, and myself, enjoyed our weekends sitting on the veranda taking in the beautiful sunny day while laughing and talking for hours.  When I moved to Canada, and my brothers moved to Florida we made sure things rarely changed.  For years and despite our geographical distance, we continued to spend time on the phone laughing and reminiscing.  Never could I imagine that my dear Brother Harvey would pass away about a week after our last conversation. 

I am grateful to the rest of my siblings who are there to lay our dear brother to rest and endure firsthand the ups and downs in the family. 

Brother Harvey, you will be deeply missed.  Rest in Peace. 

From: Brother Derry; his wife Ianthie; daughters Jacqueline and Tanya; and Grandchildren, Joshua, Abigail, Elijah, Isaiah and Marlee.  

Love knows no boundaries even those that  divide heaven  and earth.  So  whenever  you feel sad, just  remember ,   your hearts  are connected  together. To my family I cannot find words to Express. Love u family. Barbara love  my  deepest sympathy. 

“Love isn’t true because of the quantity or the frequency in which words are spoken but in the quality of those words expressed and in the sincerity of those expressing them.” Joniel Hardais

Harvey was full of life with a strong presence.   His laughter was infectious to the point that he’d have you laughing even if the joke was on you.  I never expected this now but they say, in the midst of life we’re in death and he has gone ahead of us.  His energy will always be with us and we will hold on to the fond memories of an uncle, a father, a brother and a friend.

Rest in Paradise Harvey.  You’ll never be forgotten.

It is very hard to write how I truly feel using a few words. 
Uncle Harvey was  a real legend who have been a father, a friend and role model to me. One of the greatest time in my life was all the time we spent together. 
He was loved by everyone!
Uncle Harvey was an incredible father, husband, son, uncle, brother, and cousin that we all cherish. 
A life without him seems somewhat impossible. 
He is always happy and friendly. Despite any illness or tiredness, he never back down from helping his family. I normally would referred to him as the first responder of the family, who is always ready and available to support. 

I grew up admiring his loyalty, love and respect that he spreads among  his children and  family . 
The bond between him and Uncle Brashie is something beyond normal. 
This man is a real hero and warrior that we all are going to truly miss.

I am blessed to have shared such a special bond with him  and all these great memories that will live on with me. I will forever cherish the time we  spent from Jamaica to Florida. 

I vow to be there for all his children, like he did for Ryan and I.
Take care Uncle Harvey, 
You are gone, but you will never be forgotten. 
With all my love until we meet again!





We are going to miss Harvey’s smile, jokes, most of all his presence. Harvey would come into the lab to pick up specimens and I would say hey Deac. he would say hey Evangelist! I would often share my speaking engagements with Harvey sending them to his phone and he would say good job Evangelist! Live life accordingly for No one knows the day or the hour. Praying for the family.. peace and comfort during this difficult time, May God be with you.
With love Sharen( Flagler Medical Ass.)

We are going to miss your smile, your jokes, and most of all your presence, Harvey would come into the lab to pick up specimens and I would say hey Deac. Harvey as he would say hey Evangelist! I would send Harvey messages from my speaking engagements and he would say good job Evangelist! Life is precious, take not one day for granted for no-one knows the day or the hour.... sleep on my friend (Deac. Harvey!)
Praying for the family, comfort and strength 
With love Sharen( Flagler Medical Ass.)


Hey cuz, even though we have never physically met, we always made sure we kept in touch by phone.
We were always laughing like crazy but keeping it real.

Our big plans was for me to meet up with you in Florida and then you would introduce the entire family to me.
Family meant everything to you cuz! 
You also had a genuine love for people (from all walks of life) and was probably unaware of how many people genuinely love you back in return. 
 I couldn't wait to meet you cuz and was soo looking forward to see you this coming summer as planned.
But that was not meant to be..
for God had a bigger and better plan for you my brother.
Life will never be the same for me without you. 
Love you to eternity.
RIP cuz.

My deepest condolence to the Howells's family ! Expecialy to Rodcliff
 , Harvey was my Best friend from school day's until his passing. We  would text everyday to check on each other ... It hurts so much to lose a best friend  a brother  words can't express how am hurting. But God!!!!!! knows best. He'll will always in my heart. Rest well till we meet again brother.


Uncle Harvey, 

My heart is broken into pieces. I didn’t get a chance to say goodbye. I’m really going to miss you, especially our conversations. You were always good to me and the kids. You were rich in love and it showed with your infectious smile. You always called me your niece and that I will forever be. Tell Fadda Vic and Mama I said hello. I love you Uncle Harvey

Rest in perfect peace Harvey you will never be forgotten. We will miss you dearly. 

My Great Uncle Harvey!.. You will be missed dearly. Thank you for all the good times you’ve brought to me and my sisters. You’ve always kept us laughing at family gatherings which made you very unique in every way. Mama can’t wait to see you again, please send her our love. Until the days are no more we shall meet again and reunite as one.....Love you Uncle Harvey.

My condolences to the family, and may the beautiful memories of your loved one bring you peace. 

Hey cous, we never get to spend some more time before you go. 
Man, i miss you but I know you up in heaven with Shane. 
Rest easy cous,  I will see you one day.  

Nuff love. 

The Jones family would like to send out condolences to the Howell family during the shocking death of Harvey.  Harvey was the cousin of my late Father Clarence Jones. He was such a positive and respectful person plus he was full of life.  He will truly be miss. I pray for strength and healing over the family during this time. Harvey you rest my friend God knows Best. 

My heart is aching because my dear cousin went home to be with the Lord. Heaven needed him more than we did. He was just comforting me for the recent loss of my Mom. How then could he be gone so soon after??  
I have lamented with the Lord.  Jesus, Jesus, why, why, why, WHY O GOD!!! My tears are flowing ..... Lord, help us to understand WHY?? Why must we bear this?  Lord we know that you are always with us and will never forsake us— we ask that you help us to overcome as you overcame.
We need you Lord Jesus. Our family need you. Please comfort and succor Harvey, his immediate family and children, and our extended family as we remember his life as a champion of the Sabbath. Lord your grace is sufficient, and we further ask that you help us to celebrate his life and legacy with treasured & fond memories.  
Harvey was like a brother to me.  We spent many summer holidays playing rounders, catching birds, picking star apples, and of course— attending Sabbath church -making fun of our older relatives “getting in the spirits”. We didn’t realize it back then that they were manifesting the fruits of God’s goodness.  
We miss you dear cousin,  take your sleep and rest in the Lord’s care.  We will remember you always in our hearts till we meet again. 
May God’s grace be with you and our extended family.  

On behalf of the family of the late Noel Patterson . 
Our sincere condolences and prayers goes out to the Howell family as you grieve your brother’s passing. Harvey was a very happy and jovial person and we were just beginning to know him and he’s gone ...too soon. Our hearts are with your hearts in grieving for Harvey. I pray the Lord will enfold you all in His arms and bring you comfort like only He can give. God bless you always ❤️🙏🏾

My sincere condolences on behalf of the Gordon family. 
 I have not seen Harvey in many years but remembered him to be very pleasant and friendly growing up.  My brother Junior said he spoke to him 2 days before he passed and was extremely shocked of his passing. 
God’s blessings to the freaking family.

My Unc!!!!!!!!!!! I’m missing your contagious laugh, your huge heart and kind spirit. “What’s up mi niece” You loved without words. There’s nowhere you wouldn’t go and nothing that was too hard for you to do even when your body said otherwise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You were tooooooooo chillllllllllll to be gone!!!

Uncle Harvey is still in our hearts no matter what. Uncle Harvey's still here. Even though he is in heaven with God, he will always be here.

First i must say sincere condolences to the entire family.  My fondest memory of Harvey happened in 2019 when I visited relatives in Florida, the Sunday I should return to Jamaica I visited church first and when it was time for the airport the ride fell through, my sister reached out to Harvey and him being the sweet soul he was offered to take me to the airport but made sure he gave me a full talk about the sabbath and why I should keep it holy.... We had some bouts of healthy laughter on our way it's like you could look in his face and readily see his heart. In January of this year he opted again to grab my lil son who was traveling from Georgia to hollywood international airport when he got stuck and took him safely home.fly high my sweet friend. May your soul continue to sleep in sweet peace. 

Harvey was one of the first people I worked with when I joined Quest 3 years ago.  Everyone on his route loved him and he was always bright and cheery as he made his rounds.  I always bumped into him throughout the week as we crossed paths at various buildings. He will be missed.
