He was born on February 8, 1946, in Union County, Mississippi, to the late Bert Stout and Mary Davis Stout. Harvey lived a life marked by kindness, devotion, and steady strength, and he will be remembered as a loving and friendly man who cared deeply for the people around him.
Harvey was a devoted husband to Judy Moody Stout and a proud father to his daughters, Karen D. Stout and Christy Murry. He was also blessed with four grandchildren and six great-grandchildren, each of whom brought him great joy.

Harvey retired from Union County Road Maintenance after years of dedicated work. He was known for his strong work ethic and his willingness to stay busy, especially when working outside. He took pride in a job well done and carried that same dependable spirit into every part of his life.
A Christian by faith, Harvey was a member of Liberty Baptist Church. His faith was an important part of his life, and it guided the way he treated others with warmth, humility, and respect. He found comfort and strength in his beliefs and in the fellowship of his church family.
Harvey enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. He loved fishing and hunting, and he especially enjoyed watching sports, with baseball and basketball being among his favorites. He also liked watching old westerns, which brought him enjoyment and familiarity. Whether he was outdoors, watching a game, or spending time with those he loved, Harvey found happiness in the everyday moments that made life meaningful.
