Condolences for the family of “MEIER: Harald”
We have had so many fun times over the years with Brenda and Harold. He will truly be missed! We did a lot of crazy things together and still laugh at the memories we made. Our kids loved grumpy Uncle Harold because they knew he was really a big softy and an even bigger tease! Memories of holidays together, skating on the creek, ice fishing, tobogganing, swimming, sailing, bbq’s, doing renovations together and just hanging out will always be fondly remembered.
Dear Brenda…
Harald was a wonderful fixture at the Maitland Valley Marina. We have enjoyed his friendship immensely! We will miss his dry wit and great sense of humour… but we certainly won’t forget him as he is part of the fiber of this wonderful friendly place… Love R&D.
Brenda and family, please accept my deepest condolences for your loss. I am truly sorry for the pain and sorrow you are going through. Harald’s presence, although in brief snippets of time over the years, was a gift, and the moments shared with him were filled with joy and enriching conversations. His passion for sailing was infectious, and his willingness to entertain my family on a boat adventure, even when the wind was against us will always be a memory that we hold dear. May you find comfort in the love and cherished memories you shared with Harald. Sending you all my love and support.
Rest in peace Uncle Harald. I will miss watching you walk hand in hand on the beach with the love of your life; my beautiful Aunt Brenda and the way you would look at her with such affection and love, when you thought no one would see you.
You had a wicked sense of humour and some of my favourite childhood memories were on your sailboat ⛵️ or having bonfires on the beach.
I know your mom, my grandma Betty and your sweet fur babies were all waiting for you and you are all walking on the beach together and listening to the waves.
Until we meet again, give grandma Betty a big hug for me.
Sending our sincere condolences to Shawn & Shelley and family. Thinking of you all at this truly difficult time. ❤️
So sorry to hear about Harald , Sending our sincere condolences to Brenda Dave and Karen , and Families
