Harold Caswell's memorial service went well. The turnout wasn't as good as hoped; perhaps due to fair week in Plains, and a year-long delay due to COVID.
Sadly, many pictures couldn't be saved. All in all, it was a beautiful send-off for Harold and much-needed closure as we said goodbye to our father, father-in-law, and grandfather.
Many thanks to those who came, and those with us in spirit. The military honors were touching and brought many to tears.
The following day we honored Harold's last wish and spread his ashes at the cabin where wife Nona, and son Harry's ashes were spread. We're sure the three of them are having a joyous reunion in Heaven.
Rest in peace Harold, we love you and will miss you!
