Harvey rests right across the road from my parents at Mayfield Cemetery. WhenI stop and chat with them, I also stop to say "Hello" to Harv.

I have fond memories of Harvey because he was a very nice person and handsome too. I remember a huge crush I had on Harvey - think I was in junior high school at the time or possibly even as a 6th grader at Mercer. I have never forgotten the time when he chased me around the perimeter of his house and I fell into a window well - no kidding! I had a little dent on the shin of one leg and another dent on the other thigh. Didn't get hurt beyond that. Don't think I ever did THAT again! I'm sure I provoked him into chasing me. I was boy crazy. Nadine Eisenberg's father used to call me "B.C.".
