Dear Family and Friends Of Harvey,
Harvey will be greatly missed. We attended Plymouth High School and he always had a smile on his face. Years later when ever we met, he always took the time to say Hello and spend a few minutes talking about the good old days. He was a good friend. You have my deepest sympathy, May God Bless.
