Title: Shaft Slinger (My Brother)
Post by: shaft slinger on January 13, 2011, 09:47:00 PM
From Longarrow....I have recieved many PM's and post asking about Harold a.k.a. SHAFT SLINGER.His time to leave this world is near. His family, myself and Darrell (our other borther) are at his side. He is in some pain, but at home with family where he wanted to be. This has been really hard for me as we were so close. I'll post more later. Keep us all in your prayers.

To the Couch Family:
  My deepest condolences with Harold's passing. He was a friend and foe, mentor and teacher.  One of my fondest recent memories was at Blackhawk's 18th Annual All Trad when all three Couch brothers were there, I had to let them know that the BFA Sheriff was watching (LOL) but could be bribed to look the other way (wink).
 Harold you will be missed and I am damn proud to call you my friend. I will miss the time shared by the campfire.  Dave

Mary,

My deepest sympathy and heart-felt prayers for God's peace that passes human understanding to wrap you, the family and friends in His loving Grace to ease this pain.

He is not gone, Harold lives within each of you and may that knowledge keep your hearts and Minds in Jesus.

Keep the Son in your eyes!

Mary, Rick, Darrell and the Family of Harold:  So sorry to hear of his passing.  Harold was one of the reasons Billie and I drive over 200 miles to attend the shoots at Blackhawk Field Archers many times a year.  Harold was a gracious host and a friend to shoot a round with.  He was always there at breakfast to share some conversation with.  He was a wealth of archery knowledge and a great shooter and teacher.  He was part of the heart of the club and will be missed by all, just because of the type of person he was.  In some ways I should keep Harold in the present tense, because his memory will last in all our hearts.  BIllie and I are planning on attending visitation if at all possible.  Our heart goes out to all the family.
