After leaving there he started driving medical transport for Koeppen. For the last 30 years he also made and sold lefse with his wife Sherri. 5 years ago he had a crazy idea of making a mobile shack and he made it come true, they called it "The Lefse Shack". He was so proud to interact with everyone that would come up to The Lefse Shack, and loved being a part of the community.
Harold was a big family man, and loved his family and friends so much. His kids and grandkids were his everything. He would never miss a bowling tournament, soccer game, or football game. He had such a big heart and would go out of his way to help anyone in need.
