his country for two years and upon completion of his service, he went back
to farming in Fayette County with his family.
Two years after his return, he made the decision to move the family to

saw his thirst for knowledge and suggested he attend Texas Lutheran Col-

never actually attended high school - because of his military service and
the Gl Bill -TLC accepted him on a probationary status.Though college was
challenging, he studied hard and worked during the summers and was able

Upon graduation, he taught at Schreiner Institute in Kerrville for two
years, and in the summer of 1956 he married Charlene Wehe. He was ac-
cepted into graduate school at The University of Texas in Austin where he
completed both his master's and doctorate degrees in microbiology. Harold
was living proof of the adage,"hard workalways pays off."
During that time, Harold and Charlene had three beautiful daughters:
Cynthia Louise, Rebecca Charlene, and Melissa Faye. After completing his
doctorate, he was the professor of biology, microbiology and molecular biol-
ogy for over 40 years at Sam Houston State University, Huntsville. During his
tenure at SHSU, he taught thousands of students, many who went on to have
successful careers in medical, educational and scientific fields. He was an in-
spiration to his students and a model for his peers. Harold was a notable re-
searcher. He performed extensive research on bacterial endospores, with his
findings being published in several peer reviewed scientific journals. Harold
never lost his love of farming nor his interest in growing spores. His gorgeous
yard was full of huge blooming azaleas he nurtured from cuttings, as well as
his abundant vegetable gardens both in his backyard and at the acreage in
Edge. He did not like weeds though, and spent many hours ensuring their
demise. He enjoyed harvesting wild dewberries, mustang grapes and elder-
berries for his homemade wine. Harold's love of travel, hiking, and camping
took Charlene and his girls on many summer adventures throughout North
America. This sense of adventure now lives on in his grandchildren.
Harold and Charlene have been active members of Faith Lutheran Church
for over 50 years. Harold was a truly committed, but humble servant of God
in all aspects of his life. He had an incredible work ethic and expected that
from others, especially his students and family.
He was preceded in death by his parents Fred and Hertha Foerster, and his
boda Lane, La Grange, siblings Pearl Winter, Roy Foerster, Myrtle Ceding and Ivill Cook.
