David Browne wrote a sympathy message

“Uncle Harold was like a father to me. My dad had moved out when I was a teenager and moved far away. Harold & I spent many summers hiking and camping. We covered every trail in Rocky Mountain National Park. Later we kept up with vehicle stories, his undercover Navy effort and my relocations with Boeing. He was always full of information and a pleasure with whom to converse.”
