Dick and Family,
My deepest sympathy and prayers goes out to you and your family and God may give enough strength to withstand the loss of your beloved.
Bonnie and girls,
We were so saddened to hear of your loss. And to know the pain each of you are experiencing in your own way.
When we first became neighbors, many years ago, Harry was one of the first to come and greet us, offering his tractor if we needed it. He was so down to earth and friendly! I am so honored that Amanda got to know your family well when she babysat your girls' growing up.
Bonnie, remember we are just across the field and a phone call away if we can do anything for you and your girls.
God is listening to your pain and will help you deal with your grief in months to come. Take care. Fondly, Gene, Vickie, Amanda & Megan Langley
Dick,
I'm very sorry to hear about the sudden death of your Mom, Annie, and your brother, Harry. Just wanted you to know that I'm thinking about you and your family.
Dear The Poole Family,
I am so sorry to hear about your dad and grandmother. You all may not know me that well but I did go to school with all three girls at one time or another. I also work at Ukrops where I had the pleasur or seeing Harry often. Although I did not know alot about him, I wanted to send some hope and love to the family that did. I lost my grandmother less then a year ago and although the situations were different the pain is still the same. Coming to the reality that they are gone is the hardest part, but it can be done. I also fully believe in signs that everything will be ok and your father and husband is ok too. If each and everyone in your family looks, they will appear. Stay strong Tara Beth, Melanie, Emily and Bonnie. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
Dear Poole Family:
I went to school with Harry. Although I have only seen him once in the past 30 years or so I was sadden by news of his passing. Words cannot express the sorrow or pain you feel at this time. Neither can words alleviate them. Only time and prayer will heal. God will supply the time; I will do my part to offer my prayers.
May God bless.

Dear Poole Family,
I am Bob and Jackie's brother-in-law. While I did not know you well, I know how devoted Bob and Jackie are to you all. I also remember visiting you at the old Webb farm where my grandmother lived when Bob, Kevan and I were growing up. This is simply a tragedy. You are in our prayers.

Tara Beth,
I'm sorry for your loss. I know it is difficult when you lose a loved one, especially a parent. I'm sorry to say that I will not be able to come to the funeral. The most I can say is that I know you are a strong person and as painful as this experience is and will be, you will grow from it.
You are a wonderful person, one of the most wonderful I have ever met. Don't ever lose that Tara.
Very Respectfully,
SPC Nicholas Castrinos

Mrs. Poole and Girls,
I do not know if you remember me but I do you. Your family is the type that once you meet them you never forget them. My oldest son, Christian went to school with Tara Beth and my middle child went to school with and played sports with the younger girls. I remember the first time I met Harry and he carried himself with a glowing look of self confidence. I remember saying he is someone I would like to get to know and be like. As time went on I got to know him and thought that he was a wonderful man.
I know he will be missed by all of you and all of those who knew him. I pray that GOD will grant you peace in this time of need. I have asked my church to pray for each and everyone of you.
If my family or I can do anything to help you please do not hesitate to ask. If you just need to talk - - call on us.
Regards,
Dwayne, Paige, Christian, Beth, and Chandler Tharp

Hello. I am an employee of Dick Poole, and as well respected and well liked as he is, I have to say that he must have one great and amazing family because it's obvious he had a great upbringing. This leads me to say that although I never met Harry, I know he had to have been one amazing son, brother, father and husband. No words can relieve the pain and grief his loved ones are going through but I do know that GOD DOES NOT GIVE ANYONE MORE THAN THEY CAN HANDLE. Please remember this. It will take you far and give great comfort. I bet Harry is looking down right now at you from Heaven wearing a big smile at seeing how much he was loved. No one can ask for more and he was a very rich man for having that. I pray that you find comfort all around you and that God sends rays of sunshine your way soon.
God Bless You,
Debbie Pignatore
Dick and family,
My heart goes out to you in your time of sorrow. God gives us peace of heart at times like these. Psalm 46 was a great source of comfort when my sister and brother passed away 1 month apart.
My sincerest sympathies,
Shirley

Bonnie, Tara Beth, Melanie, Emily: It's so hard to even begin. But, here goes....Gie and I have been praying for you and will continue to do so. You are all such incredible people. But incredible people need help too sometimes. Let us know how we can help, and we'll do it! If we could take all your pain and endure some or even all of it for you, we would. Unfortunately, that's not possible. We hope just knowing how much we care and how much we're praying for you will help a little. We love you all and will keep asking God to give you peace; and I know he will. Love, Kay, Gie & the kids
