Harold was a carpenter by trade and loved every minute of it. Harold was a devoted family man that loved to fish, hunt and camp at JW Corbett. He spent countless hours tinkering around his yard on the tractor, cutting trees and burning brush. He was the life of the party and made his presence known with his distinct laugh that everyone knew. He was known as everyone’s “PAPA” and always made you feel right at home whether you were family or not. Harold spent years coaching kids in baseball. Harold will be very missed by many and changed the lives of so many. We love you and will miss you.
