I only new Harris through Cindy, his daughter. When I did meet him he seemed to be a very gentleman who cared a lot about his daughter and his grandbaby's. I can remember him sitting on Cindy's couch holding his new grandbaby and he was happy! So my prayers go out to all of his family especially Cindy and her babies! God bless you and I know your daddy brought up a strong an confident woman who is so blessed!From your brother and I
