He was loved fiercely and will be remembered as a charismatic, sharp-witted, chivalrous man whose family was always important to him. Diligent worker, playful jokester, photographer, superb scrambled egg-maker, loving Dad, brother & ‘grouchy Grandpa’, Harold lives on in the hearts, minds & conversations of all who loved him. The family would like to thank the teams at Bryan Hospital, Eastmont Senior living & The Monarch in Lincoln, Nebraska. The care provided in the last several years is much appreciated. They served not just as caretakers and healthcare workers, but also friends and family to our Dad and all the residents. We will always be grateful for their compassionate care, loving spirits and welcoming hearts. A celebration of life will be scheduled later this year in Harold’s beloved Rock County, Minnesota.
