Harold was a very good friend. I was honored to be asked by the family to perform TAPS at his sevices. The most difficult thing I have had to do. May God keep you and bless you and your family. You will never be forgotten my friend. CAPT, USN (Ret)

Fellow Marine
Well done Marine rest in peace
THE TIME you won your town the race We chaired you through the market-place Man and boy stood cheering by, And home we brought you shoulder-high. To-day, the road all runners come, Shoulder-high we bring you home, And set you at your threshold down, Townsman of a stiller town. Smart lad, to slip betimes away From fields where glory does not stay And early though the laurel grows It withers quicker than the rose. Eyes the shady night has shut Cannot see the record cut, And silence sounds no worse than cheers After earth has stopped the ears: Now you will not swell the rout Of lads that wore their honours out, Runners whom renown outran And the name died before the man. So set, before its echoes fade, The fleet foot on the sill of shade, And hold to the low lintel up The still-defended challenge-cup. And round that early-laurelled head Will flock to gaze the strengthless dead, And find unwithered on its curls The garland briefer than a girl’s. A.E. Housman, "Don't be afraid, I've redeemed you.
I've called your name. You're mine.
Isaiah 43:1 (REN)

jr.high and high school friend
Harold and I were very good friends when we were growing up. I remember when his dad bought him a 55 or 56 ford 4-door sedan. One day it was raining (we lived in the desert) and the streets would get slick when wet. It was fun to spin the back tires and that was what we did. In front of the school there were cross walk signs and Harold sped up to spin his tires and slid sideways into the cross walk sign and damaged his car. We used to build and race slot cars at the Piggly Wiggly store in Lovington. The most annoying thing for us at that time was Harold's little brother Eric. Mohair sweaters over a plain t-shirt was Harold's choice of dress. From one Viet Nam vet to fallen Viet Nam vet if you can read this thank you very much and as we said before I will have a good time for you as I know you would for me. Love You Buddy! Dale
