Mr. Harvey was born on October 11, 1957, to the late Gordon Harvey and Maxine Marshall in Beaumont, Texas. Mr. Harvey was a loving, caring man. He was big on loving his family. He would especially boast about his brother, Gordon Chris, and sister, Eva Vanessa. Mr. Harvey never met a stranger and when introduced, folks knew him as "Hollywood". He was a jokester with an outgoing personality. He loved being outdoors and loved animals. He loved the game of football and he would always cheer for the winning team. Per his brother, Chris, we used to play hide n seek together...we shot marbles with each other...we played Cops n Robbers n Cowboys n Indians. We used to walk to school together. We hunted n fished together. We got in trouble together, cried n laughed together. We have prayed together. We have been through the ups n downs of this life together. But, now there will just be a memory n a love in my heart that will never fade away. I lost my baby brother yesterday Mr. Ricky Ken Harvey. Oh, how I will miss him...I can honestly say that I have never loved anyone other than my God more than this man! Cherish your loved ones n pray daily for them for We know not when our time on this Earth shall end!
