As an old Navy Vet and having known Harold since the early 80s when we met at NCTR back in Arkansas I am most saddened by the loss of such a kind and gentle soul. I will forever miss Harold as he was one of my few true friends from my before. Rest in Peace and ride on my brother. Peace and Love.

Harold, my brother, I just can’t believe your gone so soon in our lives. Just not right. I do get relief knowing that you are not hurting and in pain and are in the house of God. Visiting with Dad and Mom and Phillip and all family that has past before us. I will never forget all the good times and some of the bad. You always stayed in touch with family and had a great smile, especially when you were riding your bike. Love you Brother. Until we meet again

Whitney, Comfort and peace be yours. Your dad was an amazing man to raise such a kind, caring and sweet daughter. I thank Harold Atterberry for his service to his country and community so those I love and care about can enjoy freedom. Love you sweet girl.
