Carlie Harold Humphrey

It is with profound sorrow yet deep appreciation for a life richly lived that we announce the passing of Carlie Harold Humphrey, affectionately known to all as Harold. Born on March 17, 1941, in the vibrant city of New Orleans, Louisiana, Harold's journey on this earth concluded on February 12, 2026, in Beaumont, Texas, leaving in its wake an enduring legacy of love, warmth, and laughter.

Harold was the beloved son of Boardman and Ruby Humphrey, whose nurturing shaped the man he would become. He was preceded in death by three sisters, Jeanette, Nadine, and Wilda, and a steadfast brother, Wayne, each of whom held a special place in his heart. Their memories will forever echo in the stories and laughter he shared throughout his lifetime.

As a brother, Harold's affection was unwavering. He is survived by his sisters, Sharron, Barbara, and Rhoda, alongside his brother, John Edward, who all carry forward the torch of his spirit. His familial bonds extended deeply into the next generation, as a loving father to Christine Corbello and her husband Chris, and to his son, Hank Humphrey, who is blessed with a remarkable partner in Christi. Harold took immense pride in his grandchildren, Kody Haynes, Jessie Haynes, Harlie Wyant, Sierra Corbello, Caitlyn Humphrey, Mason Humphrey, Blake Humphrey, and Cole Humphrey, who filled his days with light and joy. The laughter of his great-grandchildren, Hunter, Tanner, Noah, and Shilo, served as a vibrant reminder of life's continuity and the fruits of family.

Beyond the bounds of kinship, Harold fostered deep and meaningful connection with a select group of special individuals in his life, one was Gene West, who were integral to his journey and companions in his pursuits.

Harold's legacy is one of resilience, kindness, and the ability to brighten even the cloudiest of days. His presence will be profoundly missed, yet those who remain are eternally grateful for the moments shared, the lessons imparted, and the love that knows no bounds. As we commemorate his life, we celebrate the irreplaceable imprint he leaves upon our hearts and the countless lives he touched with his gentle spirit and infectious smile. May his memory be a blessing and a guiding light for all who knew him.
