Harald started at Gelhorn Motors in 1954 as a bodyman, which later became Parkside Ford where he retired in 1993. Harry was an avid hunter and fisherman and in the winter months loved to go bowling, until the golf bug bit him, which led him to various golf destinations, Palm Springs being his favourite. Harry also loved to travel back to Germany to visit his many friends and relatives. When not golfing, he loved gardening and his backyard showed it. The family would like to thank the doctors and nurses on the Third Floor at the Grace Hospital and St. Boniface Hospital Palliative Care.

God saw you getting weary, And a cure was not to be; So He put His arms around you And whispered "Come with Me." With tearful eyes we watched you, And saw you pass away, And though we loved you dearly, We could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands were put to rest God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best.
