HARMON, METHODIST BISHOP, DIES AT 100

Nolan B. Harmon, a Methodist bishop and former pastor of Roanoke's Green Memorial Methodist Church, died Tuesday in Atlanta. He was 100.

Harmon, ordained in 1918, was the pastor at Greene Memorial Methodist Church from 1933-1940, and returned several times over the years to preach.

He was elected a bishop of the Methodist Church in 1956 and served in the Charlotte, N.C. area until his retirement in 1964.

He will be buried beside his wife, Rebecca Lamar Harmon, who died in 1980, at Evergreen Burial Park Monday at 11 a.m. Oakey's Roanoke Chapel and Patterson's Funeral Home in Atlanta are handling the arrangements.
