Harold Vann was a member of Bethel Free Will Baptist Church where he often sang in the choir. He loved his church family so much and enjoyed worshipping with them. He was a hard worker and had worked in the furniture industry before working at Toolcraft most recently. He enjoyed shooting pool, fishing, and making people laugh.
