Harold Dale Graybeal

Harold Dale Graybeal passed away on July 18, 2026.

Harold was a hardworking, talented bodyman who specialized in frame repair and was widely regarded as one of the best in the area at his craft. Before beginning his career, he proudly served his country in the United States Army as a mechanic, including service during the Vietnam War.

A man of many interests, Harold enjoyed repairing small engines, antiquing, garage sales, traveling with his beloved wife, Doty, and reading just about anything related to history or the military. His faithful dog was his constant companion and best buddy, and he genuinely loved his neighbors and the friendships they shared.

Harold was one of a kind. He was quirky in the best possible way, and anyone who knew him smiled at the memory of the claw-foot bathtub he installed in the middle of his open basement—with overhead support bars to safely help him in and out—because he simply loved a good bath. He lived life on his own terms and never cared what anyone thought.

His greatest love was his wife, Doty. She was his whole world, and after her passing, her memory remained close to his heart every day.

Those who knew Harold will remember a man who was humorous, full of life, and convinced that laughter was a necessity. He was a hard worker, creative, intelligent, generous, selfless, and unapologetically blunt. He could be ornery, and he certainly wasn't for everyone, but if Harold loved you, he loved you with everything he had.

In accordance with his wishes, no services will be held.

And, as Harold would likely want to leave everyone with one last laugh:

"After supper, mthrfkr."
