I am so sorry for your loss. So many memories of times with you when we were single in Little Rock and memories of Town Club too. How can it be 46 years since you and MD got married? My condolences and my love and prayers are with you and your family.

Harryette, we are so sorry to hear about MD. We had some good memories at Hot Springs High. I still have pictures he took of our daughter when she was about three years old.
Our prayers are with you and your family during this time.
Kenneth and Gloria

He was my client for 30 years and my friend for a longer time. His time here was successful because of the lives he enriched.

MD was such a great friend to my dad and myself. I?m very sorry to hear of his passing - we had a great time on our trips to Alaska. He was a very good person and will be missed.

MD was a great guy and we loved working with him at UAMS. I also loved seeing him at the Athletic Club every morning. He was a bright ray of sunshine every time he came to work with student and he was also a friend and constant supporter of the SP program and our students at UAMS. We missed him after her got sick and spoke of him often. May his memory be eternal. Love to Harryette and his family.

A wonderful man and he will be missed. We met 30+- years ago at the "French Rivera Spa"/"Cosmopolitan" on University & "H" Street then the "Power House" in West Little Rock and finally the "Little Rock Athletic Club". He was devoted with his workouts and had a strong work ethic! So many wonderful memories.

more than a mentor, a true friend and great guy that I'll miss. Friends since 1979, employed by MD from 1979-1988, glad to see him branch off into the movie industry
