Harold Windsor, 80, passed away Thursday, January 25, 2018 at home surrounded by his loving family.
Harold was born on November 17, 1937 in Staten Island, New York to the late Harry J. and Catherine Veronica Windsor. He spent his early years there and was a graduate of Ralph McKee Vocational High School in Staten Island. Harold served his country in the United States Navy for eight years, including two years of service in Morocco, South Africa, eventually ending up stationed at Naval Air Station Glynco. It was during his service at NAS Glynco that he met and married the love of his life, Betty Jean Leggett and the two relocated to Jesup in 1958. Harold was a brick mason by trade and was owner and operator of Windsor Construction for over fifty years. In addition, Harold also worked at Rayonier for twenty-two years. He was a member of Jesup Church of God for over fifty-three years where he served in various ministries. Harold was a member of the American Legion Post #311 and volunteered his time with the Boy Scouts and countless other organizations within the community. In his spare time, he enjoyed the beach and loved being in the sun. Harold also enjoyed studying the bible, baseball, and cherished spending time with his beloved family.
In addition to his parents, his son, Harold "Beany" Windsor, III, preceded him in death.
