CONNIE AND HAROLD. WHAT GREAT PEOPLE. I am so glad they had a daughter. They always wanted kids. When I was dating Dennis Curry we used to double date together since her mom would not let her go out alone with Harold and my mom would not let me go out with Dennis alone. We figured it out. We would just double date and then that way we both got to go our with our guys. We did this for about 2 yrs until Dennis and I broke up and I went on to marry Michael and Connie went on to marry Harold. I miss you both. I can't beleive I just found out about you two but I guess better late then never. Love to you Connie and Harold and someday we will all be together in that big dating pool in the sky. I bet your daughter is beautiful just like the two of you.
