He was a member of the Paris Israel Church and the Louisville American Legion. Harold was a 75-year member of the Robertsville Grange.

(Dietz) Schweitzer; two daughters, Charlotte Schweitzer, Carolyn (Tim) Mann; a son, Dale (Nancy) Schweitzer; a brother, Carl Schweitzer; and two grandchildren, Kristi and Andrew Schweitzer.
