• It seems only the good people are taken far too early in this world. I first met Harold at my aunt and uncle's in St Adolphe. He then bought a cabin 2 doors down from us in Lac Du Bonnet. Then we became teammates for about 10 years in curling. Harold taught me so many life lessons by curling with him for the last 10 years. He taught me that it's just a game and to have fun instead of lose my temper or get frustrated. He also taught me by example to be a better person. Harold by far is one of the nicest honest men this world had. He is truly going to be missed by me and the rest of his friends and family. You cannot replace a man like Harold Mclean but he will forever be in my heart and mind. - Posted by: Cody Gustafson (Friend, Neighbour, Teammate) on: Apr 27, 2015

We have fond memories from those years as well as the time we spent with Harold and some of his family at our home in Orleans, Ontario a little over ten years ago. It was also great to renew acquaintenances at Rapid City's 125th anniversary. We always considered Harold to be a great friend.

• Irene and family, I can't tell you how saddened I was to learn of Harold's passing. Harold visited mom on a few occasions in the hospital and he was like a ray of sunshine when he would enter the room. Always with a smile and an infectious laugh, mom and I always felt uplifted after a visit from Harold. The friendship that Harold and you shared with my parents was a gift. Trips together, Bomber and Jets game, lunches...all fond memories for my parents, their house full of photos of the times you all had together. We often joked that Harold was one of dads boyfriends, spending so much time together. Losing Harold will be hard on dad, but he will be consoled knowing that he and mom will be watching over us all together. You are all in my thoughts - Kyla - Posted by: Kyla Dorge-Ray (Friend of family) on: Apr 25, 2015

• "Only the good die young" was written for people like Harold. We've been friends since the mid-70s. In the early 80s we curled together and even hunted deer together a couple times. I'll cherish two particular memories...our trip to the bonspiel in Hibbing, MN and winning one of the MCA Bonspiel events circa 1984. My sincerest sympathies to my friend Irene who is the kind of nice person we should all aspire to be. My sincerest sympathies to Chantelle and Kristian and their families, Stephanie and to all of Harold's family and friends. RIP Harold...you get to play in the longest running bonspiel in existence now! André - Posted by: André (Long time friend.) on: Apr 25, 2015
