I'm so sorry for your loss. I always liked Hal. He was a good soul and he made me laugh. He also taught me the best method to grill corn on the cob. Thanks Hal. I will never forget the day he picked Melissa and I up from the airport and it was "Hell froze over" cold as a witches tit in a brass bra outside. I promised myself never to complain about the cold ever again. And, Hal was there to pick us up in that craziness.

I was saddened to hear of Hal's passing. I was fortunate to meet Hal when you, Janice, and Hal came to visit me at Pilot Knob and take the tour. Prayers and Hugs....

Our sympathies Janice, Angie and Melissa. Harold was always upbeat to visit with, and we cousins have great memories of "hamburger fries" as we called our get togethers at his parents' house. Praying for peace during this time of sorrow.

Sympathies to Janice, Angie and Missie. As a first cousin, I remember so fondly visiting at Krueger family reunions and in the earlier years so many visits at Bill and Marie, Harold and Bob. God bless and keep all of you during this time of loss.

So sorry to hear of Harold's passing. He had such a vivacious personality. As a first cousin, I always enjoyed visiting his family. I remember doing sparklers one 4th of July and riding a peddle car down the back hill behind the house. Fond memories. Just remember, he's not gone. He's just gone on ahead.

Our condolences to Janice and Hals daughters. We got to know Hal other than in church, when we stopped for breakfast at McDonalds & he was there getting his breakfast. His stories about flying were fascinating. He always had a story to tell. Fond memories of Hal come to mind every time we go by. May you always remember the happy ones you had together.
