January 16, 1932 – March 26, 2023

It is with profound sadness we announce the passing of our loving father and papa on Sunday, March 26, 2023, at the age of 91 with his family by his side.  Harvey was predeceased by his parents Joseph and Francis; loving wife Helena; brothers John, Carl, Lou, Joe, and Bob.  He is survived by his son Harvey Jr. (Jeanette); and daughter Donna; sisters Eileen and Richie; grandchildren Jenelle (Darren), Kristi (Ben), Tracey and Pamela; as well as his great grand children Rhett, Madison, Kolten, Kailey, Niklas and Alexandra; and numerous nieces and nephews. 

Harvey was a dedicated and hard worker who spent over 60 years in the car business, starting back in 1948, working in the auto body shop, then on to car sales at Mid West Motors, Eisbrenner and Capital GMC.  He really enjoyed his time working with his team and meeting new customers throughout the years.  Harvey loved sports and had a passion for hockey. He played for the Regina Pats from 1949-1952. Harvey was an avid golfer who would be seen golfing every Sunday with his younger brother Bob.  His love for animals showed as he always had dogs, cats, and birds throughout his life.  Harvey deeply loved and treasured his family and was so proud of them.  That was apparent as he made a scrap book with pictures of his wife, children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren to show to all his customers.  His never-ending smile, wit, charm, huge heart and sense of humour will never be forgotten.  Dad/papa, you meant the world to us, and we love you with all our hearts. You will be missed dearly.  A private family get together will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his memory to the Regina Humane Society, 79 Amour Road. Regina, SK. S4K 0A8.
