  1. Was always a pleasure to be around.
    Had a warm smile and a kind heart

  2. Harold and Jean were both very good to our snowmobile club, Hill and Valley Riders, Inc. They allowed our snowmobile club to ride through their property off the old Cole Rd. and across from their house on Ashley Rd. for 25 plus years. Harold was always willing to allow our a snowmobile club to keep the trees and bushes trimmed back so we could groom the trail. Harold and Jean were very kind to us and we shall never forget their willingness to work with us over the years. Harold will be missed.

    Our condolences to the family and our prayers are with you during this difficult time.
