Writing for the news Web site of Penn State, where Harvey began preaching the merits of fly fishing in 1934, Margaret Miceli and Danielle Vickery pay tribute to a well-loved teacher. "His successor, Joe Humphreys, also a retired Penn State faculty member, characterized Harvey as 'a good man.' 'He really enjoyed helping people,' Humphreys said. 'He taught approximately 35,000 people how to fly fish. In Pennsylvania alone, he taught 72 classes in 68 cities.'"
