Harold Dymond was a farmer- one of the last of his ilk. He was born on the land that has remained in the Dymond family for over 100 years and that his son Steve, still farms today. His passion for farming and his determination to be a good steward of that land was a constant and unrelenting theme throughout his life. He learned the basics form his father, Otis, and honed those skills over the next 60 odd years. During WWII, Harold, ignored his farming deferment and enlisted in the Army. His service was of the type of which he rarely spoke. He was the recipient of a Bronze Star with Oak Leaf Cluster. On his return from the war he met and married Marie Fuqua, a city girl who grew up in Valley Junction, and the two remained a team for the next 58 years until her death in 2004.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the family to be distributed to Harold's favorite charities at a later date.
