Harrold lived life to the fullest. He enjoyed riding his Harley and especially time spent fishing with his son, Ricky. Harrold was a generous and giving man who loved helping people. Many would seek his wisdom and he readily shared his opinions, offering up advice when he could. He also loved animals, particularly dogs and birds and was a talented dog trainer. Harrold faithfully studied the Bible in great detail throughout his lifetime and enjoyed listening to Biblical scholars.
Harrold leaves behind many loved ones to carry on his legacy which includes his wife of 55 years, Lottie; three children, Pam and her husband, Billy Bell, of Rockwall, TX, Rick Scott of Bremond, TX, and Kim and her husband, Terry Flannigan, of Sikeston, MO; four grandchildren, Brooke Bell Rodgers, Bryce Bell, Blake Flannigan, and Cooper Scott; two precious great grandsons, Landon and Jace Rodgers.
