Harvey is survived by his daughter, Sarah Kaylor-Danko; two grandsons, Stephen and Bryan Danko; five nieces and nephews, Brenda Meeboor and husband, Bill, Barbara Guffey, Gary McDonald and wife, Molly, Larry McDonald and wife, Danielle, and Robbie Stout and wife, Tena; multiple great nieces and nephews; and friends, his sidekick, Bobby Lee Laws, and Corky Grigsby.
