HARNAGE Message from Rob Harnage: Dear Friends and Family, On behalf of the Harnage family, I want to extend the sincerest thank you for the kind words and prayers received from many of you. For those who were able to attend Dad’s funeral services, it was a pleasure to rekindle old acquaintances and make new ones. It was an honor to meet those individuals who knew my Father. It has been suggested that I write a book about my Father. The truth is that I am currently putting the finishing touches on a fiction novel that I started eight years ago. I welcome the challenge of writing about my Father. I would like to invite those of you who knew my Father to write a paragraph or two or more about your relationship with O.B.. This will help me in getting a better picture of what was behind the man. I saw Dad from a Son’s eyes. I have learned more about my Father in the past 30 days then I did in a life time. I am still in awe about some of the stories and experiences I've heard from many of you.
