Harold Bell, 94, died peacefully at home, surrounded by his children, on May 26, 2021. Harold, or Hank, as his friends called him, was the husband for over 68 years of his beloved wife and partner Bobby Bell, who died in 2017. Hank and Bobby did just about everything together, and they were the love of each other’s lives.
Hank was the oldest child of Leonard Bell and Rose Yaeger Bell, and the loving brother of Elizabeth (known as Betty). His father owned and operated a flower shop, and his mother was a homemaker, raising Hank and Betty, and also a sculptor and metalsmith in her later years. Hank often related lessons he had learned from his parents to his and Bobby’s children particularly how his father had to put up with a young Hank. Hank also was very close with Bobby’s much larger Brazel/Okrent/Otis family.
