    To the family of Harlan,I am so sorry for your loss. I knew your Dad through working at Bank of America. He was our mechanic for our branch. He was always repairing our NCR machines. He was a wonderful man and friend. We would share our traveling experiences. This was in Merced, Ca. I now reside in Yuma, Arizona. He also would share wonderful vegetables from his garden. We send our sincerest condolences.
