ALBERT HARNESS Obituary

Harness, Albert Michael

February 6, 1946-November 4, 2013

Mike died swiftly with his newspaper on his lap and a cup of coffee by his side. He was a skilled wood worker, a sharp shooter and a master at restoring and caring for cars. Mike loved the Wild West and had many odes to John Wayne in his apartment. He collected guns and knives and swords and was most at home with his treasures. Mike's life was too short but while he lived he was generous with his spirit and his time. He once gave a car to a guy at work because as he put it, "he has to take three buses to get to work!" Mike is survived by his daughters, Cheri Felix and Cheryl Ray and six grandchildren. He is also survived by his brothers, Bill and Gene Harness and sister, Wilma King. He was predeceased by his mother, Veryl Holton, his fathers, Hugh Harness and Claude C Hall and his sister, Lanelle Bryant. He will be missed by many and forgotten by none.
