I had a brief conversation with Mr. Rumpler when he was a recent resident at Anchor Lodge. I walked past his room, while visiting my brother. Introduced myself as I knew the Rumpler name from South Lorain as a pharmacist. Come to find out I was talking with Keith's dad. Nice man, nice conversation. My sympathies are with the family.
Sorry to hear of Harold's passing. I believe Harold used to play volleyball with my dad Lenny. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Uncle Harold and I played two rounds of golf in all the years both of us have played. With me being in the military we never connected until 2007. He won the first round I won the second. So I guess this will be a great memory that we finishe even. What a golfer he had 40 years I me an I strugled to even the match. I will truly miss you!!

I wanted to extended my condolences to you Kim. I haven't seen or talked to you since we graduated from high school and not sure if you even remember me (that was a long time ago). I just remember you as one of the most beautiful and soft spoken girls in our graduating class. I knew you grew up on Meister Rd. and I travel that quite a bit going to visit my daughter and I have often wondered what ever happened to you. Both my parents are gone now (my mom died last July 24th) so I know the pain of losing a parent. You have my deepest sympathy.
H was my second dad....always there to take us to the root beer stand or watch lightning over the lake from our back porch. As I grew older he taught me a lot about gardening, where to buy the best ice cream, and even gave advice on how to quit smoking! Uncle Harold was always quick with a joke and we had many laughs together. But what I remember about him the most was his ability to care about all things living - plants, animals, and people. He spent time with young people who were troubled and helped neighbors, friends, and family whenever they needed him. He loved his family and was a dedicated husband and father. I was proud to be his niece and will miss him.
Vicky, Kim, Keith and families: Mike and I are with you in spirit. Please know that our prayers are with you.
