Here is a truly exceptional human being whose life and breath is a testament of caring wisdom. A gifted and gentle warrior who illuminates the world through sharing his wealth of experience. Sophia rides gently upon his soft spoken reflections. Here is a man who should be invited to speak on all of the talk and “news” shows!
this is incredible. thank you for such a succinct and insightful comment.
Dear “Dr. Harding”,
You have made truth and candor, your friends as you have walked the steps “Ordered By The Lord”. Your contribution have been “Outstanding”. You acquired leadership skills. You have served as a mentor. You have planted seeds of “Food For Thought” that could feed/serve generations. It is my sincere wish and most reverent prayer, that GOD will continue to Bless, Protect, and Guide you and yours. “Deacon A. D. Malloy”
You are still inspiring us, Dr. Harding. Still miss your classes. Jan Munsey, Iliff, 1987
