Kathy,
I will be out of town on Saturday. Please accept my sincerest sympathies. I always found Harrison very helpful as we worked together at Hudson Falls. I was always impressed by his ability to be professional even when he was being pressed. I could see him take the time to take a swallow and then respond. He was always a gentleman. He was a great colleague.
Dear Kathie – Although we are not there with you as we are out of town, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May the many happy times and memories of Harrison be a source of comfort to you all at this difficult time. Most sincerely, Sue and Roy Cottrell
