He had a happy childhood, living on a farm close to his relatives. In 1942 he was baptised as a Jehovah's Witness, In 1948 he began working in his family's sheet metal business.

When he returned, he moved to Flin Flon, Manitoba to work and participate in the ministry as a 'pioneer'. He later moved to Ottawa where he stayed until 1958 when he again attended a convention in New York. In 1959 he met Mildred in Winnipeg. They were married on June 25, 1960. In March 1963, Harold started work at Manitoba Bridge and Iron Works and retired in 1997. On July 12, 2018, he went into personal care. 

Harold and his family found inspiration in Isaiah 40:29-31. Harold hoped in the words of Revelation 21:3-4, where it says that there will come a time when there will be no more pain and death.
