Gary,
The Culbertson family sends our very best to you & your family. Our dads were part of a generation that valued family, hard work, and outstanding character. They are missed, but the legacy they left will sustain us through our lives. Your dad was always there to help out with car issues no matter how busy he was.
Sending our thoughts to you. Anne Culbertson Tolonen

RIP 'Speed'. He was my first mentor in Toastmasters in 1980. Harold was a creative, dedicated man. I am a better person for knowing him. He was kind to my dad and beyond gracious to my sister and me. A huge loss to the community.

Condolences to the entire family.

Dorothy Stude Cottingham, a Toastmaster friend.

We have only known Speed for a year and a half, but we loved him. June, seek solace with the Lord.

Gary; Sorry to hear about your dad passing. Speed was a great man who lived a great life. As a young man I was truly touched by him as he helped shape me into the man I am today. My wife and I have many great memories of our days with Speed,s Towing and the Coe Family. Heaven is a brighter place with Speed in It.

Harold did a lot to give the industry a better image for many years.

Harold was a fine fellow with an admirable work ethic.We are sending our comfort to the family and those folks who worked for and with him.
