Harold was the quintessential salesman, who took great pride in his work. He made an art of listening to his clients and instead of selling them what he thought they needed, he rather provided for them what they wanted. Harold was a devoted husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. He loved his family fiercely and devoted his life to their wellbeing and happiness. He was a lifelong member of Masonic Lodge, both in Michigan and in Florida. He especially enjoyed the ritual and the language of Freemasonry. He was a twice Past Master and dedicated his time and efforts in all aspects of the lodge. Hs brothers and their cause were his philanthropic passion that he cared for deeply. A Chapel Service will be held on Friday, January 12, 2024, at 1:00 pm with a committal to follow at Eternal Light Memorial Gardens.
Rabbi Raphael Adler will officiate.
