I didn't meet Doc Harris until I came to work at Brittany Pointe Estates as the Chaplain in 1998. I have seen him recover from major surgery in his late 80's, I've heard him tell his favorite stories, but, most importantly, I've seen the love he shared with his dear wife, Rebel, and each of his family. Jesus said that the second greatest commandment was "to love thy neighbor as thyself" and Doc Harris lived that out. My wife and I will miss him. Our love to Doris and the entire Harris clan!!

Mrs. Harris - I knew Dr. Harris during my employment at Germantown Hospital. He was always a most pleasant person, friendly, charming, and he had a great reputation around the hospital. We had no medical professional relationship, but he never failed to smile and say hello as we passed in the hallway.
My condolences to you and the family

Mrs Harris you and your family are in my prayers.
I will always remeber Dr Harris as physician who always had time to sit and talk with his patients and their famlies. You don't see that today. Gretchen Jones
