  17. Pastor Joe Mills condolence:

    I am so very sorry to learn of Harold’s death – he was such a wonderfully nice man, and I always looked forward to running into him at Village Church events. I think I loved his wry humor most of all. I stopped into Hitzeman’s today because I could not go to the funeral tomorrow (I’m at the funeral of a 38 year old friend). All my love to you all, and blessings and prayers always!!

  20. Noble Glaudell condolence:

    To the family of Olie:

    The first job I had with Western Electric was in 1953 in the Mechanical Lab. I was fortunate to have known Olie since that time. Later on, he became my supervisor. Olie was a great boss–as fair as they come–an absolute asset to Western Electric! It is with much sadness and regret that I first heard of his passing (just today). My wife, Carol, and I wish to express our deepest sympathy to everyone in the Olsen family. May the memories you have of your husband and father sustain you through this difficult time.
