Harvey grew up on the family farm in Lookingglass, Ore. He attended the one-room school in Lookingglass and graduated from Roseburg High School. As a young man, Harvey learned the body and fender trade from his older brothers. He spent two years in the U.S. Army during the Korean Conflict and was stationed at Fort Clayton in Panama.
In 1956, Harvey married Ruth Phares Walker. They had three sons Paul, Timothy and John. Harvey graduated with a bachelors of arts degree from Warner Pacific College in 1962. In 1967, Harvey moved his family to Klamath Falls, Ore., where he took a position as sales manager for California Pacific Utilities.

In addition to his business, Harvey was very involved in church activities. He and Ruth started and pastored a congregation in Redmond, Ore., and then became the pastors of Life Community Church in Klamath Falls.
