I'm so sorry for your loss. I worked with Harold at Wolf Retail Solutions and we enjoyed many conversations. He sat right next to me and I helped him with his laptop. We often talked about racquetball and His adventures as a truck driver. He was a very nice guy and my only feeling of content comes from knowing that he is finally with his wife whom he missed very much. Please keep me informed on when/where the ceremony will be.

GOD BLESS
Jeff

The angels are always near to those who are grieving, to whisper to them that their loved ones are safe in the hand of God.

Although we did not know Mr. O'Neil we are blessed to know his incredible daughters!

Harold and I go back to grade school. He could be a big tease when he wanted to, until one day I grabbed his shirt collar and it tore. Mrs. O'Neil never let me forget that rip. LoL. We spent many hours playing handball in the hot summer sun behind my house in our Camelot like world called "Carroll Street" in Brooklyn NY too. He was my friend.

We separated as we grew up only to regain communication as adults when he was a truck driver and I was a traveling sales person. This time our friendship grew deeper roots as we traversed the freeways.

Harold held firmly to the responsibility of being both my big brother and my friend. His loyalty and protectiveness was unmatchable. His character is reflected in the love and care he shared with those of us he held dear. A gentle, wise, sometimes funny personality is what he offered to us. Deeper still, his encouragement led by action, not just words; his sincere gift to those he loved.

I am at a loss, I cannot replace this tall, soft-spoken giant of a man. The world is a bit darker now that he is gone.

Your friendship was an honor Harold.
I'll miss you always.

Ena
