I found this email by accident last night.
I wish I could remember what I named files.
I am inserting this in the Arrowhead Inn part VI story.
____________
Also emails from several Nason relatives that were not aware of their family’s history. That can’t be my Uncle Sam! Yes it can honey!
Some were very nice emails. This one describes a very different Harold Nason. One we did not meet in the Arrowhead Inn articles. I am aware of a lot of info that was not in the articles. It was withheld by Danny’s request. I did not look for the Harold that Betty describes. All of us have more than one person within us. I should have looked.

Dear Gene,
Thank you for the Nason "saga". It was truly fascinating! In many ways it was unbelievable since my relationship as a child with my Uncle Harold was that of a completely different person.
My own Father was around but not really in my life. Harold was the ideal male figure in my life and everything any little girl could want - kind, gentle, loving and with a great sense of humor. I moved from Covington at age 17 in 1947 to go to college and only came back briefly on rare occasions so I never really had a "picture" of what was going on with the family.
You would be interested to know that Harold was very close to my mother (Estelle), sister to his wife (Frances). In later years they maintained apartments next door to each other. My mother was a devout Catholic and in the last year of his life when Harold was so sick, she instructed him in the Catholic religion and he was baptized and made confession to a priest (who certainly got an "earful").
Tony and I are grateful that you are in Danny's life. We hope to get over to Vegas more often. In the meantime, please let us know if his condition worsens or if he has to go to the hospital.
You have our email address. Our phone number is XXX-XXX-XXXX.
Sincerely,
Betty
