Uncle Harold, I will always remember the times our family would come to Seminole and spend our vacation with all of you. Good times. I will miss you always. Your niece, Pamela Garrett

Uncle Harold, I will always remember so many good times with you and Aunt Bernice when you lived next door to Grandma & Grandpa. When all the cousins got a little older and we would come for vacation we would walk to the Greenspray and get a chocolate soldier!! Time has gone by so fast. You were a fine uncle, and I will miss you. Your niece, Pamela Garrett

Grandpa- you will be missed by everyone who knew you, especially me. I will cherish all of my memories with you. Watching cartoons and eating golden grahams as a kid with you in the morning was one of my favorites. Nothing will be the same without you. I sure do love you and will miss you until I see you again. ~ AS

I knew Mr. Lindsay through his son Ronnie. There is no doubt that he was Ronnie's hero. I only met him once but felt like I've known him a lifetime by the stories and adventures Ronnie enlightened us with. Not many left as such of this man! We see it as death God will see it as life!
