Mr. Helbing owned and operated Harold's Radio and TV for 42 years. For the past 17 years, he also drove a school bus for the Dubuque Community School District.

He was a plumber, electrician, auto mechanic, carpenter, biker, record collector, solitaire champion, pack-rat, model airplane enthusiast, Sam's Club member, lumberjack, home builder, confidant, family man and flower gardener, all wrapped up into a happy-go-lucky man of faith, who laughed from the belly and loved with all of his heart.
