RIP Harold Owens

Floyd Staggs · 11-30-2023, 01:57 PM

The most respected and revered lane director in Div 7 has passed away.
He will be missed.

I am very sorry to hear that news.

Harold was one of a kind and a friend even when
he had to holler at me to keep me on the straight and
narrow.

God's Speed Harold.

A west coast racing icon. It was always fun to chat with Harold, hear his jokes. RIP.

Thats the saddest news I could imagine. He knew everybody, he called the lanes at nearly every track out here at one time or another, and everybody liked him immensely. This is a real loss to Division Seven. As long as he did all this, I wonder how much racing history of significance he personally witnessed. I think the greatest legacy a man could leave behind was all the racers that really enjoyed him and the reputation he had. He will be missed.

What a great guy Harold was. He will be missed by many. RIP my friend

I never met Harold. He sounds like an awesome guy. It's gret to see someone like that honored and remembered.

It's those people like him who help make our sport.
