Harold Jamerson Obituary

Harold Edward Jamerson passed away on Wednesday, August 20, 2025 at Mission Hospital. He was born on March 27, 1960 in Asheville, NC to the late William Sherman Jamerson and Margaret Elizabeth Jamerson. Harold Edward Jamerson was truly the light of our family. With his quick wit and sense of humor, he kept us laughing and always on our toes. Harold worked in many restaurants over the years, where he discovered a talent for cooking and could create some of the best dishes you've ever tasted. His presence at our family holiday dinners will be deeply missed. A true jack-of-all-trades, Harold mastered many skills. He was an exceptional painter and always willing to lend a hand wherever it was needed. Whether helping someone move, cleaning up a yard, or tackling a project, Harold could be counted on to show up and get the job done. Harold's greatest legacy is the love he shared with his family. His daughter, granddaughter, siblings, nieces, and nephews are especially grateful for the outpouring of support shown over the past week, as well as for the love Harold received throughout his life. He will be remembered for his laughter, his kindness, and his unwavering willingness to help others. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by grandson, Lyndon Jovan Dobbs. Left to cherish his memory is daughter, Latisha Michelle Dobbs of Asheville, NC; brother, Darrell Jamerson (Gayle) of Tacoma, WA; sisters, Priscilla McLaughlin (Harry) of Asheville, NC, Elease Atkins of Jessup, MD, Winifred Williams (Herbert) of Largo, MD; granddaughter, JoAnna Katherine Dobbs of Asheville, NC; special friend, Lisa Simpson of Asheville, NC; nephews, James Jamerson of Temple Hills, MD, Harry McLaughlin of Matthews, NC; nieces, Alesha Aiken of Duncan, SC, Tia Jamerson Atkins of Baltimore, MD, Erika Vernon of Piedmont, SC, Alisa Hendrix; other relatives and friends. Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00pm Sunday, September 7, 2025 at Community Baptist Church, 103 Burton St, Asheville, NC 28806.
