Harold Decker Obituary

HOOSICK FALLS, N.Y. -- Harold Maynard Decker, 65, of Elm Street, died on Tuesday at the Center for Living and Rehabilitation in Bennington.

He returned to the Hoosick Falls area 18 years. He loved bird watching, fishing and country-western music. He was an all around “fix-it’ man.

Survivors include his sisters, Jean Wilson of Hoosick Falls, Bette Perry of Cohoes, his dear friends, Bernie and Arlene Guerard of Hoosick Falls, along with nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by siblings Marjorie Bierwirth and Harry R. Decker.
