"...I need to express my appreciation to you Harold for your faithful work you have been doing for years. How we enjoy when Saturday 7 pm. - 9 pm. Radio station CHRB 11:40 am. High River, Alberta is on. My husband & I are enjoying your program more and more. You do fantastic work because it is so refreshing and beautiful songs that you select from various groups and individuals. We love them ALL! May the Lord richly bless you and use your voice for a very long time..."

"Hello, Harold! I am writing you from Toronto, where I hear your fine program of southern Gospel each week on CFAM in Altona. I visited the station last weekend and had a most enjoyable time. I enjoyed your limelight feature on the Lumber River Quartet this evening and looked them up on the web and was very pleased to hear their singing of "Thanks to Calvary", which you played by Kevin Mills on tonight's program. I only wish I had been in Manitoba to hear both Kevin and the Lumber River Quartet, but, Lord willing, I might just journey out there again and hear them both in the same concert. May God richly bless everyone connected with "Heart of the South". In the King of Kings"

I want to personally thank you for producing this show for us. The local touch you add makes it that much more valuable. I can’t even begin to imagine the amount of hours you must put in.

"My husband and are just being blessed by your Saturday evening gospel broadcast. It is one of the radio shows that just touches our hearts with so much inspiration and tonights (Gold) City songs are especially touching as we love the hymns. Ever since our son and my mother passed 3 weeks apart away 3 years ago, this music is what God has used to heal us and bring us much encouragement... We are thankful for AM 1140 for broadcasting your show. It could be another hour though. We are sorry when it is over."
