- ELIZABETHTON - Harold Dean Boone, age 74, of Elizabethton, Tennessee went to be with his Lord on June 22, 2019 after a long and courageous battle with cancer.

He had an infectious smile, loved a cold Sprite from Sonics, known for looking spiffy and being a momma's boy, and loved country cooking.
