Harold was so kind to my mother Ruth VanZee after my father died, giving her many, many rides to wherever she needed to go. Mother didn't drive and was so appreciative of Harold's willingness to take her. Our sympathy to all of you in the passing of a very special man!

Our deepest sympathy to Harold's family. We felt so blessed to have Harold be a part of our lives. He was a very special person and we loved him. He shared so much with us through his artistic ability. We loved his simplistic view of life, he took only what he needed and was content with that. You have touched our hearts forever.

Harold Quick was my great uncle. And 'great' he was! He made annual trips to Colorado to see his sisters Catharine and Carol (my grandmother). I looked forward to those visits. Uncle Harold was always interested in what my brother and I were doing, engaging us in conversation.
I had the pleasure of visiting Uncle Harold in Iowa with my grandmother as a child. I remember him showing me the lightning bugs for the first time, something we don't have in Colorado.
I am grateful to Scott and Marilyn for the care and the love they gave my uncle, and to the hospices nurses who cared for him in his last days. He left this world quietly but not without touching many lives.

My uncle, Harold Hugh Quick, was the last child of Maggie and Clyde Quick. Harold's sister Carol was my mother. Harold was a funny, intelligent, quiet, and gentle man. He was an artist and a prolific writer of letters to the editor in defense of the down-trodden and in critique of political folly. He died a peaceful death, as he had hoped in Iowa where he had spent his entire life except for service in World War II. He had no wife or children but many loving nieces and nephews and countless friends who preceded him in death. He will be greatly missed.
