The world just doesn't seem quite the same without Harold here. He was a good guy, family man, co-worker..... I am sure he has gone through the pearly gates and is looking down on us with a little smile and a soft chuckle.

I had the privilege of working with Harold for many years at Digital Controls. One could not find a more dedicated, loyal, dependable, or just "all-around good guy" than Harold. I was honored to be able to attend his viewing and Memorial Mass. What a beautiful tribute and celebration of a life well-lived. He so often spoke of his family with so much love and pride. I know you will greatly miss him, as will all of us who had the opportunity to know him. My deepest sympathy to the beautiful Uhlenhake family.

We both had the pleasure of working with Harold for a number of years at Digital Controls. He often spoke of his family with love and pride - so often we felt we knew you all. We are blessed that he was a part of our lives. Our thoughts and prayers. May the many wonderful memories bring you comfort.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Harold was always warm and welcoming to me. I usually experienced Harold in the atmosphere of the extended "extensive" family. It was obvious how loved, appreciated and relied upon he was. He will be missed.

Our deepest condolences to Joan and the entire family. We were greatly saddened to hear of Harold's death. He had built our first home in 1980 and we raised our family there. I had all of Harold and Joan's kids in school and have fond memories of all of them. Harold was a very good person and his legacy will live on through the fine family he and Joan raised.

In February of 1985 Harold and I started at Digital Controls and 26 years later to the day we both left Digital Controls. I have the best of memmories of working with Harold and his exceptionally quick and retentive mind. I also recall our many conversations over the years on a wide range of topics from child rearing to roofing techniques (some of which I successfully employed in the construction of my shed!) and in the later years conversations about

I read it in the Dayton Paper about Harold's death. Joan and family, I will keep you and your family in my prayers. It brought back long time ago memories when you first got married and lived in Dayton.

I was shocked to learn of Harold's passing. I looked forward to seeing him next year at our 50th. We spent days together in classes, other recreation, and basketball.

Joan - my thoughts are with you. Harold was one of the really great people in my life.

To the Uhlenhake Family:
I am so saddened to hear of Harold's passing. He was such a great guy and a great co-worker. I have many great memories of him. He spoke often of his family and you could tell he cared deeply for all of you. I will keep you in my prayers and I wish you the best through this difficult time.
