Harley earned a Purple Heart, Vietnam Service Medal, and several other awards while serving his country. After his 21 years of service, Harley worked various jobs at the City of Browns Valley, Ewald's and Reed's Fish Companies, and several gravel trucking jobs including the construction of the Big Stone Power Plant.

Harley was a member of the Browns Valley American Legion. He enjoyed spending time outside gardening, fishing, and tinkering with anything he could find. An important part of his day began with his morning coffee at BJ's with Tami, Becky, and the crew. He loved to tell stories and jokes to make people laugh. Grandkids, country music, campfires, and watching his animals roam were Harley's great passions.
