ANNOUNCEMENTS
Updated 01-22-09

Dear Friends of Chinn Park Regional Library

It is with great sadness that we inform you that our friend and former board president, Harvey Simon passed away after a short illness on Sunday, January 18, 2009.

Harvey volunteered for The Friends of Chinn Park Regional Library almost from the time the library opened. Harvey served as a board member and was President of the Board from October 2005 to September 2008.

As a retired Capital Hill police officer, Harvey enjoyed working Security at our book sales. On the book sale set up night, you could also find him unpacking books in the history section. He loved to talk about the Civil War and his animals, especially his horse, Sonny and German Shepherd, Buddy. We will miss Harvey. For years, many of us have worked with him, and know that we have lost not only a dedicated volunteer, but also a friend.

Harvey is survived by his former wife, Grace; two sons, Douglas and John; and a daughter, Jane Hall.

Relatives and friends are invited to celebrate his life on Saturday, January 31st at 2:30 PM at the Montcastle Funeral Home, 4143 Dale Blvd., Dale City, VA 22193. Interment will be private.

The family requests that friends honor his memory through a donation to one of the organizations in which he was a member, activist, and avid supporter:
