He graduated from Plainfield High School with the class of 1968. Shortly after graduation, he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps and served his country honorably during the Vietnam War.

He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and camping in his spare time. An avid tinkerer, Harold often referred to himself as a jack of all trades and a master of none.
