    Harriet, Her Royal Majesty, was such a special lady. I am blessed to have worked with her at 422 shoes. I enjoyed her stories about her family. Sincere sympathy to the entire family.

    Im so glad that I got to visit Harriet December 1999. She was like a big sister to me when I was a kid, and of course Leonard was like a big brother to me. Its nice knowing that she is now again with Leonard after 58 years of marriage, and that my sister Peggy is with them, who died December 1999. Loved them, and may they rest in Peace with our Lord Jesus.

    To Len my oldest friend & his siblings & extended family, Mrs. Middleton always was so happy to see me & always asked about my parents. She put up a lot with us in our teenage years down in their basement. Her tolerance & calmne.ss always impressed me.
    Also, she made the best Ice Tea in the Delaware County .
