HAK was a great guy, great Trooper, great friend and a great neighbor. I also remember playing softball with HAK. 'He was playing shortstop and I was playing 1st base. When he fielded a ground ball and came up to throw, I knew that my hand was going to sting after catching his throw. He had an arm on him.
RIP buddy

Sorry to hear of Harold Jr's passing. I do recall Bob's big brother as deserving respect. He was a champion to all as a State Trooper and protector of the public. Rest in peace. Richard Kraemer

HAK was my relief most of my shifts when we worked at Brightwood together. We had quite a few chuckles together. I joined his golf group a number of times and shared a number of breakfast and lunches together.
He truly was a good man with a good heart. I'm sure he will be deeply missed by family and friends.
RIP buddy .

Will miss Murph on Saturday mornings for breakfast and coffee. He had a lot of friends at the firehouse and The Palms. May he rest in peace.

So sorry to hear of Harold's passing. He was a great addition to the M.S.P. I remember all the softball games when he showed up we seem to always win. God Bless Hack....

So sorry to learn of the passing of Harold Koudelka. I was so fortunate to know "Hack" through the MSP and playing softball with him. We were playing Reese Fire Company for County Championship at Christmas Tree Park in Manchester. Hundreds of spectators present - before game started - chanting "Let's go Reese beat the State Police". in first inning we got three hard hit singles to load the bases. Hack was batting clean up. very bright moon shining over huge pine trees. hack proceeded to hit a tremendous blast so deep into those trees - no one bothered to look for the ball. as I rounded second base thinking "it's four to nothing and we haven't made an out". I always had great respect for this man. one of his very athletic daughters injured her ankle in a school volleyball game at Key High School. HACK was there supporting his daughter. we carried her to his car for trip to ccgh. I'm visiting family in Texas or I would be at his service. a really good family man and skilled athlete. I wish I could make that service. I know that I was most fortunate to call Harold Koudelka my friend.

I knew Hak through one of my best friends from high school. (Lori) Hak was a great story teller and was one of the funniest men I've known. He was very supportive of us. I know his presence will be missed.
