Harold was active in the real estate market and was a licensed real estate agent and owner. He was an avid hunter, fisherman, and hunted all his life with his many friends who shared the joy that it brought to them all.

His charitable interests included the March of Dimes, which he contributed much time and organizational skills to its benefit. Harold was also a staunch Republican and was a past delegate to the RNC. He is survived by his children; Lynn (Omer ) Cloutier, Julie (Douglas) LaBarge, 5 grandchildren; Monica (Bill) Henson, Jessica Rocheleau, Ashley LaBarge, Whitney LaBarge, and Ryan LaBarge, great-grandchildren; Connor, London, Miranda, Cody, Arianna, and Justin, great-great grandchild; Christopher, two brothers; Jerry Burrow, and Deloy (Norma) Burrow, nephew; Jeff Burrow, and niece; Jennifer Burrow.
