I wish I could have known Harold better but he was always friendly when I saw him. We communicated some after Elnor died and I will always treasure those letters. I know he was always proud of being a Marine and of his service to our country.
I'm glad he had your love and friendship, Don, and may he rest in peace.
Our family is so sorry for your loss. Harold definitely lived a very fulfilled life. I (Dana) recently waited on Harold at Fareway grocery store in the last couple of months or so and even though I hadn't see him in several years, he remembered me when I told him who I was. Harold and his beloved Elnor were very dear friends of my Grandmother, Hazel Terry. They are all together again now. Rest In Peace now, dear friend. God Bless!
Harold was a part of the "Greatest Generation" in his defense of our Country during World War II. I am very fortunate to refer to him as my favorite Uncle. I will never forget his honesty, humor and relentless work ethic. Even into his eighties, Harold looked forward to putting on his work boots and gloves to help his friend Ryan with projects. When he visited at our home, he was always appreciative of the time spent with family. When we went to see him and had lunch together, it was the same way.
God Bless and keep Harold.
