He was truly a wonderful man and I still think of him with great fondness. My husband and I moved to Oak Harbor in 1974 with the Navy and I worked for the Chamber of Commerce (then a one-person office, open 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. weekdays only)! Hal and I worked together on the Holland Happening parade and it allowed me to get to know a truly great American and one of the most wonderful folks Ive ever met.
