Harold was born on January 11, 1950 to Antionette and Laly Stelly in the St. Martin Parrish of Louisiana. He spent his career within the California oil industry retiring from Halliburton in 2008 after 30 years of service and later formed Harold Stelly Consulting Inc in 2009.
Harold is survived by his Life Partner Gail Buckles, daughters Roxanne Chaves and Amanda Stelly-Quintana, step-daughter Cat Whitelock, brother Russell Stelly, son-in-laws David, Ryan, and Joe, and grandchildren Yasmine, David, Makayla, Blaine, Derrick, and Jaiden.
Harold was most happy when he was ballroom dancing with Life Partner Gail, drinking coffee with close friends, showing his Corvette in California competitions, playing golf, and spending time with family and friends. Especially during his annual Gumbo Christmas Eve dinner.
