His passion for golf, inspired him to have his own immaculate lawn and landscaping. Harold was always available for a game of Poker with his friends and family or a game of Bid Whist. A man of the world, Harold loved to keep up on the local news and current events. He found peace on the water fishing and relaxing with his buddies.
