For his military service, Harvey received the Korean Service medal with three bronze stars, the National Defense Service Medal and the United Nations Service Medal. After his military service, Harvey sailed for one year for the Inland Steel Company as a deck watchman on the ore boat L. E. Block in 1969.

They sold their business to Martin Peterson and moved to Ashland in September 2003. Harvey enjoyed making fish tug models and was a commercial fishing historian.
