I never met Bro. Harold but one time. In fifteen minutes of talking with him I knew this man was ready to go. He told me about his problems and that he didn’t have long. . I know he is in Heaven. My sincere condolences to the family. God bless you all.
Bro. Harold was a great man of God. We can only imagine what he saw when he took has last breath. I'm sure there was a big smile on his face when our Lord said, "Well done, my good and faithful servant." He will be greatly missed for years to come. He fought the good fight and he kept the faith, and now all the glory of Heaven is his to enjoy for eternity. We will be praying for you as you face the days ahead without him. Treasure the wonderful memories you have and may our Lord wrap His arms around you and give you peace. We love you.
A beautiful soul and friend to our family. Sing with the Angels. Prayers for peace surround you all.

I am deeply saddened by the passing of Brother Harold. I can't be there today but must express my appreciation and show honor to this messenger of the Good News. Brother Harold was truly a pastor to the entire community. And he didn't allow denomination lines to interfere with God's work in the Family of God. I served with him in the greater New Site area for 7 years during my tenure at New Site United Methodist Church, and I can truly say that he embraced me as an equal from day one. Being my first Pulpit I needed all the help I could get and God sent Harold Cummings to my aid. He invited me to preach in his pulpit, to eat at his church gatherings and even to sit in on a Baptist ordination examination and Service Celebration of one of the Brothers that was sent forth. My memory of this man will always be of one who was faithful, expressed charity and was filled with The Spirit. Welcome Home my Friend, You finished well and I will see you again soon. Until then and for eternity, Jesus is Lord.
With Brotherly Love, Your friend Paul Vick

I am very saddened to hear the news of my friend and brother Rev. Harold Cummings recent passing. But I am also very excited that he is now with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I had the privilege of working with Harold at Auburn University for many years. He was one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. I read the Obituary where it said, “Harold never met a stranger.” This is so true. He loved everybody. Let not your heart be trouble Brenda. Your dearly beloved husband is celebrating now with the Lord and other fellow saints. You will see him again on the other side. My prayer for you is that the Lord will comfort and keep you and the family during the hard times. Cherish those memories you had with him and keep them close to your heart ♥️. I know you loved him, I loved him, but the Lord loved him best. God bless you 🙏🏽♥️🥰
My sincerest sympathy to the family. Harold was an unforgettable grammar school classmate and friend.
Harold was an awesome Christian man! During my 25 years at Auburn University, I had the privilege of knowing Harold as a co-worker. I'm praying for his family and friends.
