Very sorry for your loss...My husband and I were patients of Dr Harris when he first opened his practice on Peck St and continued until he retired from Norton Family Pratice. He was what every doctor should be to their patients...he knew them. He was always caring,dedicated and concerned plus a smile for you. I saw him at Sears after his retirement and asked what he was doing as I knew he wasn't a person to sit still. He was doing surgeries for patients that otherwise couldn't afford to...

My family and I knew Dr. Dick through Dr. Grasman. He set my broken ankle, set my youngest son's wrist and operated on my oldest son. When I went to work at Hackley, then Mercy Hospital, I would often see him and he would always smile and say hello. After I had a mastectomy, he came to see me in the hospital to give me encouragement. After he retired, I had a hernia operation and he assisted. He came to the preop area to let me know he was there, and we talked until it was time for...

So sorry to hear of Dr. Harris' passing. He was our Doctor from the time he opened his office on Peck St. in the Heights, until he gave up his office practice. He took great care of me, my husband and three children. In my opinion, he was what a Doctor should be. He was very caring and took great care of all his patients.My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. May peace be with you at this trying time.

I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

On February 2nd 1979 I met Dr. Harris for the first time. He was the one who delivered me. From then on he was my family doctor. He was in my eyes more than a doctor, he was a friend. Its because of him that to this day I love Saf-T-Pops lollipops. He was always there for me whether I was sick, injured or just needed some advice. My heart goes out to his family. I will never forget the wonderful things he has done for me, its because of him that I am here today. "Thanks Doc"

Thoughts and prayers sent to the Harris Family. I grew up in the same neighborhood 1 block over. Good memories of a great Family. Went to school with Joyce.May God Bless you at this difficult time.

I am so sorry for your loss! My prayer's are with your family.

THANK YOU to all who expressed your sympathy at my Dad's passing. My family and I are grateful and humbled at the community's outpouring of support and prayers during this difficult time. - Pam Harris
