My heart goes out to the family in this difficult time. I will always remember going to her house everyday after school and having a Reeses Peanut Butter Cup and a glass of milk for snack. Harriet treated me like another son, she was a wonderful woman who cared for everyone she welcomed into her house. She will be missed by all.

Harriet and I were close friends for so many years. We raised our children , especially The Boys, together. The Holidays, our Sukkah, shopping together especially for Passover, gave us much pleasure. Playing games together, Belonging to Sisterhood, living so close to each other, sharing our love and dedication to our beloved Congregation, all made our family lives filled with love and celebration.
I will miss Harriet terribly. She was kind, humble, and continually through many years, a wise and good friend.
With love and fond memories, Joyce Sklar
