    I just want to thank each an every one who took the time to pay my father, myself, and my family such great words and respect. My dad was a great man and there aren't enough words to describe jut how great he was an what that actually means. He was not only my father but he was my best freind as well. I miss him very much as I know some of you feel the same. My prayers are also with all of you at this time. Again I want to thank you all from my heart to have taken a short time outta your lives to express to me and mine that you are hear and thinking. God Bless you all and thank you.

    I did not realize until today that my father, Charlie Vincent Sr., worked with Mr. Beckham. He was also a mechanic. Dad was shocked to hear about his passing. I did not have the pleasure of knowing him. So on behalf of my dad and the Vincent family, we extended our sympathies to you and your loved ones during this time.

    Jason and Chloe, I am sorry to hear of Harold's death. I enjoyed visiting with him at the nursing home. He was always kind and cheerful even in his illness. May you be comforted by your memories of him is our prayer.
  11. Phillip Hoppers
    I worked with Harold many years ago at the Coca-cola
    plant in Monticello and developed a close relationship
    with him. Harold was a true friend to me and a good man.
    I know that Harold is now in a better place and I will truly
    miss him. May God be with the family and give you comfort and peace in your loss.

    Jackie & Jason,

    So sad to hear of your brother & dad 's death, I remember you all living up the street from us on Bolling. I only knew what a good man Harold was and I know he had been suffering long enough. Our only request is that we all will meet him in our Father's House one day, very soon.

    I will keep the family in my thoughts and prayers.
  13. Linda Naron
    Jason, I do not know if you remember me or not, but here recently I went to get your Dad and his room-mate a steak meal with all the trimmings for their evening meal. It is just something that I like to do for people I know sometimes. My whole family has been knowing all of your family for a long time. They used to live over a hill behind us. My brother used to be a friend to your Dad in high school days. I want you to know that you have my deepest sympathy. Your Dad was a good Christian man . He will be missed by all who knew him. Jackie, I went to school with you and my name was Linda Hoppers back then. My Dad, Rev. Leslie Hoppers, is in Belle View Estates Nursing Home and many times when we would see Harold we would talk to him. May God comfort you at this sad time. Prayers for the family, Linda Naron

    Dear Jackie and Family, I will always remember Harold as the good man he was. He was like your Father, because, I believe he could also repair anything, small, medium, or large.
