I just found out about his passing. We traveled to a lot of races together from Indy and many tracks between. Going to miss his talks about the sport. God speed my old friend.

Jane, So sweet that you mentioned our family at Harold's funeral. So sorry to have missed it.  I learned all of the words to The Beatles songs, because of Harold!!  Fun memories.  On another sad note, our sweet mother, Sylvia, died yesterday after a long, long battle with Alzheimer's.  I've been spending time with them in Gainesville, and we are now making funeral plans.  Alan flew in from CA and Peggy came up from Tampa.  All 5 kids were together with Mom & Dad. . .it's been awhile. Yes, we need to get together for lunch.  My email is: mfreshley5@gmail.com and my phone is 706-207-0631.  Great to hear from you!  ~Marilee

Jane, I just heard about Harold's passing and am so sorry for your loss. He was always such a kind and gentle soul with a great smile!

What a huge loss for us and the loss of a man who loved his family and friends. A nice guy and good man who is now laughing with the angels as we work through our sadness and loss.Bless you Jane but you know he will be watching over you and the family....

Harold was one of the first people I met when my family moved to Athens in the mid-60's.  I remember his huge collection of vinyl LPs. He knew his music and turned me on to some little known bands like The Flamin' Groovies. You'll be missed, Bro. My condolences to his family.

Jane, I'm so sorry.  We're praying for you.

Jane, We are so sorry & sad to hear of Harold's passing. Long ago we had such a tight group of friends and we could always count on Harold for music & lots of laughter.  We went to many fine concerts in those days.  Will always remember the good times.  John & Sheree Dendy

I'm so sad today. I'm gonna miss the late nite phone calls. You were the best of us. I loved your garden - and the music.

I first new Harold as a member of the percussion section in the AHS Trojan band. Then as a fellow traveler in the old crowd, many of whom have also signed here. Have been to some high places with Harold. He used to put his headphones on me and crank up Axis Bold As Love. See you on the other side brother.

To all of the Desso family: I'm so sorry to hear this. We are keeping you in our prayers.

Harold was a wonderful person and a good friend growing up. Knew him from Gaines School on. 

Condolences to the Jane and the family.

Jane, I'm so sorry to hear about Harold. When I think of him, I think of him in his room playing his drums. He will be missed.

Harold was at the top of my list of nice guys and gentle souls. Thanks Harold for your friendship and your support of the Athens music scene.

My heart stopped when I read the news. Before my husband, Chuck passed away in June 2015, Chuck called Harold, and they were laughing, then things got serious when they started talking f1! Many fine times with Harold. Great conversationalist, and I will cherish our long talk over the holidays this past year. Find peace and know the world is a better place with Harold in it for such a short time.

So sorry to hear this news. Keeping Harold's family and friends in our hearts. We had some great times back in high school with Harold, we always hung out on the Mell Auditorium side of school and always around Harold's car, what good times and memories. Rest in peace my friend high on that mountain.

Jane, We are sorry to hear of Harold's passing.  We will keep you and your family in our prayers.

Harold was one of the first people I met when we moved to Athens in 1961. Smart, kind and a good friend. Rest well old friend. Thoughts and prayers to Jane and the family.

I met Harold the first day of first grade.  He was a quiet, kind, brilliant friend.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.


Very sad news. Harold was a generous and patient friend. His room was the coolest place on earth in the 9th grade. Thanks Harold. Go rest high on that mountain. Peace and comfort to all.

I'm so sorry for your loss.  We are keeping Jane and family in our thoughts and prayers.

I'll always remember Harold's kind and gentle spirit, his passion for music and that jacket with the fringe he always wore. We'll meet again in a better place, my dear friend,

I extend my deepest sympathy to your family.  Harold was a friend when we were in high school together.  I will always cherish my memories of him.

Harold was a friend to this earth as well as many of us who shared time with him while he was here. Thank you Harold for making my life more meaningful.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Harold was a kind soul and I have wonderful memories of him in High school. I wish you all peace in the future days and weeks.
