Harland was an excellent Bible teacher and had a great love for Christ and for the nation of Israel and its people. I enjoyed sitting under some of his teaching in adult Sunday School and also appreciated his smile and wry sense of humor!##imported-begin##Scot H. McCallon##imported-end##

Our dear Roberta, what can we share to convey our heartfelt sympathies? We loved Harland so very much! He was a beautiful example of what a man of God should be. What tremendous memories we have with the two of you! Going back as far as Harland being my childhood dentist. He will be sorely missed. Heaven just gets dearer with each saint God calls home. One day, no more tears no more night! Oh how we long for that day...our prayers will continue with you most dear friend. You are LOVED Roberta!##imported-begin##Don & Denise Keenan##imported-end##
Roberta-
I was so saddened to hear of Doc's passing. You both hold a very special place in my heart. I wish I could be there to attend the memorial and give you a hug. I will be thinking of you and praying for you during this time. Love to you...##imported-begin##Mari (Blomberg) Hanson##imported-end##
My condolences to your family. I know that Ardis would send her condolences too. Ardis' son, David Peterson passed away a few weeks ago, on January 25th, 2013, at age 45, from lung cancer. He is now buried at Cypress Lawn Cemetery, in Everett, Washington. Ardis is in a nursing home. She broke her hip, and was in surgery the day that her son died.##imported-begin##Rose Adams##imported-end##

Great men of God are introduced to mankind, and later are called home to be with Jesus, after their work on earth is finished. Our Omnipotent God keeps track of all his children, who come humble on their knees before the throne of God.##imported-begin##Robert Pourpasand##imported-end##
Roberta - we send our love and prayers for your comfort during this difficult time. Our entire family loves you and Harland and we support you in your grief.##imported-begin##Rick and Phyllis Wells##imported-end##
Dear Roberta: Our love and prayers are with you. You of all people know what a wonderful, God-fearing man Harland was and even though we know he is resting in His Heavenly Father's arms, he will be missed here so very much. We also know that God is the only one that can comfort such broken hearts. We are here for you Roberta and will always remember Harland and his love for you and his faithful service to the Lord. I won't forget the time he played his harmonica at Mildred Stringer's! I was so surprised as I didn't know he knew how to play. You both are blessings and the fruit of your labor as well as Harland's will be rewarded by the only One that can fairly reward you. Blessings, Don and Claudia##imported-begin##Don and Claudia Walling##imported-end##
