Harold was a hardworking and dedicated man who spent 40 years as a millwright at Keystone Powdered Metal. Away from work, he enjoyed the simple things in life, especially sitting back and watching the wildlife that visited his yard. He was an avid Pittsburgh sports fan who loved cheering on the Penguins and always enjoyed watching a Steelers game.

Above all, Harold treasured the time he spent with his family. Some of his happiest moments were spent with his grandchildren, and he could often be found with a smile on his face as he took them for rides on the side-by-side.

In addition to his wife, he is survived by 3 children; Carrie Shutters of Ridgway, Stephen Aul of St. Marys, and Brian Aul and his wife Susan of Kane, 10 grandchildren, many great grandchildren and 1 great great grandchild who brought him great joy.
