DAY TO REMEMBER Memorial In Loving Memory of Harvey L. Kunzman Sr., who passed away 10 years ago Monday 10/12/2015. The moment that you died my heart was torn in two, one side filled with heartache, the other died with you. I often lie awake at night, when the world is fast asleep, and take a walk down memory lane, with tears upon my cheeks. Remembering you is easy, I do it every day, but missing you is heartache that never goes away. I hold you tightly within my heart and there you will remain. Until the joyous day arrives, That we will meet again. You are sadly missed by your Son Harvey L. Kunzman Jr. and Family, and daughter Sheila K. Borger and Family
