He was born September 9th, 1950, the son of Harvey and Salome (Chandler) Searles Sr. He was raised in Dryden and graduated from Wilton Academy. After High School, Harvey worked at Stebbins Market in Dryden, before beginning his career at Forster Manufacturing where he held many jobs until his retirement. On October 27, 1973, he married the love of his life, AnnaMae Dalrymple with whom he spent 47 years before her passing. Harvey loved being outdoors, enjoying fishing, hunting, camping, and swapping tall tales with family and friends. He and Anna shared many adventures from driving to New Mexico just to see it, to camping on Moosehead Lake. Most of all Harvey loved his family. Besides his wife, he was so thankful to spend time with his daughters Angel and Crystal, and could not get enough of his grandchildren Maelyn, Chloe, and Kamden. They were truly the sparkle of his eye. So many will carry memories of Harvey from card games, fishing trips, hunting trips, late-night smelting at Varnum Pond, and numerous family gatherings.
