Harold has been a longtime friend and mentor to me in the art of collecting antiques. His vast knowledge of local Johnson City history was truly appreciated in the State of Franklin Antique Bottles & Collectible Association that he co-founded in 1998. I will miss his humorous wit and hard earned wisdom!
