Harvey Ormenso Dahl was born in Veblen, SD on September 27, 1940, to Arthur and Minnie (Beistad) Dahl. He grew up in Victor, SD and graduated with a class of 18 kids in the year of 1958 from Rosholt High School. Shortly after graduating, he was united in marriage to Joyce Lavae Wickander at St. Joseph Lutheran Church in Rosholt, SD. Harvey attended Northern State Teachers College in Aberdeen, SD for one year, he then transferred to Dunwoody Industrial Institute in Minneapolis where he graduated with the Class of 1962.

For ten years, Harvey honed his skills as an electrician working for various companies in the metro area. Joyce and Harvey decided to establish their own enterprise, Medina Electric, Inc., which thrived under their leadership from 1973 to 2000. They took on a business partner, Roger Georges, who continued the business after Harvey and Joyce retired. Known for his dedication and expertise in the electrical industry, Harvey's legacy continues through the contributions he made to numerous projects over the years.
