Harlan worked in the Aero Space Industry as a mechanical welding engineer until his retirement.

Harlan loved to camp and fish! He would take the family on camping trips and every couple of years they would go and visit Jean’s family on their ranches in Montana.

After his wife Jean passed away in 1997, Harlan lived by himself in Orange, California, until his move to Powell, in August 2017 to live with his son Brad and family, due to his failing health. Harlan lived a short peaceful life in Powell until his passing. He always said he was very thankful to have his family take care of him.
