Harold A. Sisco, 88, of Ronks, went to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, peacefully at home on Friday, July 23, 2021. He was born in Sandusky, MI, son of the late Eilo P. and Ida May Thomas Sisco. Harold was the husband of Helen Herr Sisco, with whom he celebrated their 43rd wedding anniversary on May 6, 2021. He grew up on a farm in Sandusky and proudly served in the US Army from 1954 to 1956 during the Korean Conflict, where he worked as a Medical Aid. He was a graduate of Upland College, Upland, CA and completed graduate studies at Millersville University. Harold taught for 15 years as an Elementary School Teacher in the Conestoga Valley School District. He went into business for himself as proprietor of the Nomad Motel along Route 30 in the tourist area of Lancaster County. In 1984, he bought an old home along Route 30 near Paradise and converted into the Linden Inn B & B, where he lived and rented rooms to tourists. The property was later converted into an outside retail yard and barn, and became known as "Almost Paradise Crafts." Harold loved working outside in the business and became known as the "Yard Man." Harold's passion was his love for work and working alongside his wife for more than 40 years, and didn't retire from his business until he was 85. Harold spent more than 30 years working at Almost Paradise and now he is spending eternal life in Paradise. He was a devout follower of Jesus Christ and was a longtime member of Westminster Presbyterian Church, where he enjoyed singing solos and being part of the choir.
