He was born on May 5, 1925, a son of the late William Binder Jr. and Anna Kracht Binder.

He attended Plymouth area grade schools graduating from Plymouth High School in 1943.
He attended University of Wisconsin-Madison and graduated from Marquette University in 1946 with a Bachelors Degree. He continued Post Graduate work at Michigan State University.

Harold married Elizabeth C. Eldredge on March 1, 1946, in Plymouth Wisconsin.

He served in the United States Navy as a Lieutant JG from 1943-1946 serving in World War II.

Harold was an Accountant and owned/operated the Harold O. Binder Accounting for 56 years and was proud to serve all of his many loyal clients.

He served as Secretary of the Sheboygan County Fair for over 12 years and was Sanitary Commissioner for the Town of Rhine for 29 years. He also belonged to the VFW World Cheese Center Post #5612 of Plymouth and also volunteered many hours to the Plymouth Safety Patrol. His beloved wife, Bette, preceded him in death on December 9, 2001.

Harold was a man of honor, well respected, very compassionate, generous, hardworking and always looking out for and taking care of others. He enjoyed the outdoors, hunting, fishing, golf, cards – but "never achieved the magic "29" in cribbage", although being skunked many times.

Harold was a proud businessman but his greatest joy was his family. He loved each of his 6 children deeply, and stood with them through each of their endeavors. Some of his greatest "gifts" were the times he was able to be "Grandpa B" to his much adored grandchildren. His newest gift was becoming "GGB" to his great grandchildren. Harold loved his family, but the love of his life was his wife, Bette. Harold and Bette had a love that many dream of. They traveled step by step together through life's joys and sorrows and now are walking again hand in hand.

Dad, Grandpa B and GGB, we were blessed to have you in our lives and you will be truly missed and in our hearts forever.
