Sister Darlene, Our heartfelt condolences to you and Brother Harold’s family members in your bereavement of his earthly departure.
We pray that the God of all comfort blesses you with His comfort and peace during this difficult time.
May your fond memories of Brother Harold bring each of you joy.
Prayers and condolences are extended to the family of our beloved classmate. Harold Ezell Thompson. Thinking of you and asking God to hold you close in comfort and love.
Harold Ezell Thompson was my Best Man/Best Friend, my “wingman” . We met the Summer of 1963 when my family moved from Greenview to Standish Acres, and we have been inseparable since. We played on the CA Johnson band together, he played drums and me, sax! We waited tables and worked at the Russell House Cafeteria after school, and any other job to underwrite our fun activities! 🤣
One thing I do know, his name is written in the Lambs Book of Life! He loved the Lord and always talked about “God’s Grace!!” To that end, rest my Brother and friend in God’s Grace and Glory.🙌🏽💞🙏🏽
We send our deepest condolences to Darlena and all of the family. So sorry for this season of sorrow. Love you so much.
The Chitty family is praying for Darlena and the whole family You are loved, cherished and prayed for.
Darlene,
Sorry to hear about the loss of Harold. May God grant you peace and comfort during this difficult time.
Darlena, my my heart is with you during this time and the days ahead. You and the family are in my prayers. I will pray for comfort, peace and resolve during this journey.
Heartfelt sympathy for you and your family Darlena. May God’s warmth of love comfort each of you at this difficult time.
We met Harold in 1978 at the Church of Christ on Ames Road. He was welcoming and gave me very good advice in my early walk with Christ. Harold played a significant role in the infant stages of the development of the Singles Program at church and hosted weekly meetings of the singles at his home for a long time. This relationship continued when we worshiped together at the Church of Christ on Park Street until he moved away. May the many precious memories the family created over the years help to comfort you during this difficult time.
Our deepest sympathy and condolences and prayers to the family and relatives and friends.
Prayers and condolences to Darlene and family. May God keep you in perfect peace.

To the family, My heartfelt condolences for your loss. Praying that the peace of God will comfort you and relieve your heart.
My heartfelt condolences to the family of Mr. Harold Ezell Thompson. And to you, Caitlyn and Pheshe, may God keep you in perfect peace—He whose mind is stayed on Him. Take comfort in the promise that there will be a reunion with your father and grandfather again, for God your Heavenly Father said it and it shall be so (John 11:25-26; 2 Samuel 12:23; 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17).
May his memories and the love you shared—love that you will always carry—bring you comfort during this time. God is with you; He will never leave you. You are in my every thought and prayer.
God bless you all,
Darlena, my heartfelt sympathy and condolences for your loss of Harold. Harold will be missed by all who knew him. I still remember the day when I asked him to accompany you to a social event, and he happily said Yes! God meant for Harold to be your husband and soulmate. Harold will be remembered as a kind and friendly person who loved God and would do anything for anyone in need. May Harold Rest in Heavenly Peace. Sending my love during this difficult time.
My deepest condolences to the family. Rest easy Ezell.
Dearest Darlena, praying for you and your family during this difficult time. May God strengthen and comfort you like only He can.

My heartfelt condolences to the Thompson family. Harold and I grew up in the Standish Acres community. We attend the same High School (C.A.Johnson). He was a great trumpet player, as I was a freshman on the band when he was a Senior. Our neighborhood was filled with care and love for each other. May God strengthen his family during this most difficult time 🕊️💙🙏🏾
My condolences to Mrs. Darlena and family. Wish you healing and peace during this difficult time.
