Harold wished to leave a special statement "Thank you to Pastor Freshour for his love and for helping me to cross over into Eternity to my Fathers House. Doctor Shelhamer and his wonderful nurse Kris, who worked so hard to give me all the extra time here on earth and for all the laughter and comfort they gave me. But, Doctor and Nurse, you should have worked a little harder - I still owe you money. I thought you wanted me to live until I at least paid my bill. You guys are great you always made me laugh."
