The Cushman & Gould families were some of Colorado's first pioneer settlers before it was established as a state. His lifelong passion was being a cowboy. He lived the life many dreamed of. Riding broncs and bulls, roping, training, and trading on horses & cattle. He quickly made friends in the local community, in the sale barn, and anywhere he went.
He married Dolores Ann Gingery in Lyons, Colorado, on November 18, 1956. They shared 69 memorable years together, ranching and raising their 5 children to love the Western lifestyle.
He served as a volunteer fireman for 25 years with the Hygiene, Colorado department. Harley was at home when he left this world to go to heaven on May 4, 2025 at age 88.
