I´m very sorry to hear of Harold`s passing one of the nicest guys you could meet and a True Master Craftsman at Metal Fabrication.
He was the Best.!
He helped me complete many projects at our restaurant
with his knowledge and skill of metal fabrication.
Every time I look at those projects now I will always remember him.
He was a good man.
Rest in Peace, Harold.
