We lost an icon of the billiard industry this week, Harold Simonsen! I could write pages about him, but I will suffice to let others on here tell us about this amazing man. He brought us Pool & Billiard magazine and helped found the Women's Professional Billiard Association (WPBA) among many other noteworthy accomplishments. Harold was a doer not a talker. And what a fine man he was, generous to a fault and a friend and ally to all he met. I've only scratched the surface, will let others chime in now.
 
A giant in the pool industry. He will be missed. I enjoyed seeing his Facebook photos of his home, family, and dogs. RIP, Harold. Save me a seat on the rail.
