I new Harold at the Turtle crossing restaurant in Satellite Beach. My wife and I would go there for ice cream. I enjoyed talking to him about turtles and his love for them. I just recently heard about his passing and wish to express my sympathy to his wife and family. He was a great guy. Tom and Jenny Dillon

The Brackett Family: I was saddened to hear of Harold's passing. I worked for Harold during those wild and crazy times on the CMAC product at Stromberg Carlson. He was never at a loss for a new product design or feature.

Harold will be missed by all that worked with him at Harris. He was extremly knowledgeable on so many levels and had a very unique way of adding humor to almost everything ..
May God bring you peace and comfort thru his memories ....

I'm so sorry to hear of Harold's passing. I had the distinct honor of meeting and working with Harold in the mid-90's, and our paths crossed many times over the years. Harold was a great engineer, but an even better person. He will be greatly missed.

Barbara and family,
My girls and I will always remember how Harold "worked the grill" at the Orchid Society picnics. He did a great job and always had a kind word for my girls. We will always remember him that way.
