My condolences to you, Stella, and your family.
Harold was an integral member of the group who taught together at Palmerston North College of Education as colleagues and continue to meet as friends. At College I was in Harold“s Teaching of Reading team. He was also always ready to give backstage support to college drama productions.
Harold has been a kind and loyal friend to many of us over the years. I shall miss his stalwart presence.

To Stella and family
So sorry for you in your loss of Harold. He is remembered as a wise and respected colleague of the many Reading Recovery Tutors of his era. He had an exceptional intellect and a skilful knack of questioning that got you to think about ideas in a completely different way. And all that shared in such a genial manner! Such a sad, sad loss and too soon.
