Norman and I spent 11 years together in marriage. We had a beautiful wedding where John Legend (a family friend of mines) performed. And even though we did not stay married, I was Norman's only wife and he was my only husband. Norman's only child, Lil Norman, also known as POODIE, is our talented and beautiful spirited son. Norman was a versatile individual with expertise in multiple areas: serial entrepreneurship, master barbering, skilled carpentry, and food truck operation. He was admired for his exceptional ability to fix or build anything, consistently delivering high-quality results. Norman's influence was profound, inspiring many to pursue entrepreneurship and freely sharing his skills. His vision guided our decision to invest in rental properties.

I second the emotions from my BEAUTIFUL SPIRITED and CLEAN HEARTED MOTHER. Thank you for representing what family is supposed to be Mom, I know Norman is smiling,

Rest Peacefully MY LOVE. You will be missed

To the Family of Norman Harris Sr.

My heart hurts due to the
passing away of Norman Harris Sr., the Father of my Grandson,
Norman Harris Jr.

He was a young man with many talents which was a huge blessing .

His living was not in vain and he was loved.

I have a few good Norman Harris stories I could share to put a smile on your face.

May Norman rest in heavenly peace now with his Creator and Savior, Jesus Christ.
I will pray for Norman's family to heal from his passing from this earth in due time.

"To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord".

Sleep Norman, rest until your name is called. You were loved
