All Condolences -
For the first seven years of my life, I lived at 38 Sanford St. Jim & Harrijane were of no relation but they treated me like their own. They enjoyed all the neighborhood children but I’d like to think I was the favorite. They would send cards and gifts on birthday and Christmas, chocolate bunnies for Easter and of course Halloween candy. Generosity, compassion and love is what I remember from my childhood memories that include Harrijane and Jim. Even after I moved away, Harrijane still supported me in all my endeavors. She would attend Bradford Owl Football games, to catch a glimpse of me with the marching band at half time and came to multiple nights of high school musicals to see me on stage.
Harrijane left a lasting impact on me, our community, our county, and the commonwealth. God bless her for all her achievements, hard work, and all the lives she positively impacted.

I’m forever grateful to have been counted as a dear friend to Harrijane. Losing her left a hole in my heart. She was so empathetic,generous, funny, gracious and just a very lovely person. The card I made for her that meant the most was for you, Jerry. Harrijane said often you were her rock and how you made her days easier and more joyful. So, God bless you, Jerry, for giving her so much compassion and caring. Every moment was certainly acknowledged. I speak for many when I say she will be miss profoundly.
