Harold was born on October 3, 1936 in Bodman, Saskatchewan. He moved to Port Alberni at the age of 4 with his family and never left. He married his childhood sweetheart Dixie and had three wonderful children. He worked at Toms Brothers Trucking for 13 years before taking over the company in June of 1973.
