"I was so sorry to see the notice on Eldon's death. I had not seen him for many years but used to run into him in Hooper when I came up to visit my Mom ( Norma Boll) at the nursing home. Was always nice to chat with him and catch up with all the family members. I have a lot of good memories of growing up across the street from the Harm's family, we had some fun times. Your entire family is in my thoughts and prayers. Sharon (Boll) McDonald"
