Harley Francis Daily, Jr. was born February 2, 1948 in Springfield, Ohio. He lost his battle with cancer on April 6, 2024. He was a veteran of the US Army and had served in Vietnam. It gave Harley great joy to take part in the Honor Guard flight. He had so many wonderful friends and family members who supported him on his journey, a special thank you to all of you. Harley enjoyed fishing and hunting. He had a great sense of humor and never met a stranger. He had a heart of gold and would give you the shirt off his back. Harley was preceded in death by his daughter, Barbie Fulton; first wife, Teresa Daily; parents, Harley and Ruth Daily; niece, Melissa Olson; and brother-in-law, Joe Ober. He is survived by Linda Tittle (Wayne), Katie Moore, Molly Raster (Greg), Marcie Ober, Bea Jay Taylor (Tracy); son-in-law, Timmy Fulton; and many nieces and nephews. If you didn't know Harley's name, you could always read his shirt. Visitation will be held from 5-7 pm Friday in the JONES-KENNEY-ZECHMAN FUNERAL HOME. Funeral services will be held at 10:30 am Saturday in the funeral home. Burial will follow in Rose Hill Burial Park. Condolences may be shared at www.jkzfh.com.

Right in the middle of a work shift you would sometimes hear somebody on the line yell "Hey, Harley". He was a great guy to be around and always wore a smile. Navistar has always been a place where our returning Veterans felt at ease and at home. My condolences to the family and loved ones.

Harley was the spice of life. Always the jokester. We have very fond memories of him during our years together at GTFD, when it was in its greatest time. Harley treated our children like his own. As much as he teased my son in his early years, I never understood why he moved in next door to him. Harley was there for him and his family every step in their journey. Rest easy my good friend, you will be missed by this family and many more too numerous to name.
