I will always fondly remember Harold – I walked into Pierce Interiors as a teenager shopping for a present for my Mom. Harold was helping, and he excused himself for a minute. He walked back out with his wife Barbara, and asked if I would be interested in working there. I worked there for 10 years – the entire family was so welcoming! It has been 28 years since I moved on from there but will never forget the wonderful relationship we had. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. My condolences to the entire family.
