Harold Bub Sheffield Death | Obituary – WWII Marine Raider Harold “Bub” Sheffield age 99 passed away, Harold one of the last surviving original Marine Raiders from World War II and a longtime Bristol resident, died over the weekend, family members confirmed Tuesday 4 August 2020.
“Even into his 90’s, he traveled across the country giving lectures, and presenting his story about the Raiders and his fellow soldiers,” wrote Barnett on social media. “He gave a talk at the Library of Congress, where I really got to understand his story and the horrific tolls the war took on his fellow soldiers. To them, he was a hero, but to me he was just ‘Uncle Bub.’ We’re all definitely going to miss Bub, but I can’t imagine a more fulfilling life led than his. He was an amazing son, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, husband, uncle, great uncle, and always a Marine. I’m a better person for having known him and being part of his life.”
“Raider Harold Sheffield’s passing at the age of 99 will be mourned by all Raiders, but the life he lived will be celebrated and remembered,” said the U.S. Marine Raider Association in a statement. “Rest well Raider.”
Bub Sheffield was a hero and a true patriot who I had the honor of meeting several times at ceremonies at the NH State Veterans Cemetery. I’m deeply saddened to learn of his passing and amazed by the legacy he leaves behind.
