Mom loved to play golf and do decorations for the church and for friends' weddings.

To Harvey and your wonderful family
You’re in my prayers. Your loss is truly great, for Ruth was a great woman. I pray that in the midst of your grief our Lord and Savior Jesus would comfort you and give you peace.
I also want to thank you for the joy of being her pastor. I recall with fondness her spiritual strength, her love for YOU, and her desire to be light whereby others would see Jesus.
In those last days, that’s what I noticed, Jesus shining through!
Again, blessings!
Pastor Steve
Harvey and Ruth were our neighbors on Albemarle Ct. for many years. Ruth was always so sweet and kind.
My father Peter King passed away about the same time that Harvey and Ruth had to leave their family home.
Our condolences to Harvey and family.
Marily King is now in Assisted Care at Guardian Angel since she now requires full-time care. She will be going to Riverton Retirement Center in late October and would appreciate a call from Harvey when she is situated. She misses his “is your cable off?” calls.
