Jerry HARRIMAN Obituary
February 27, 1955 - February 25, 2012
It is with heavy hearts and great sadness that we announce the passing of Jerry Harriman who passed away at the Tom Baker Center on Saturday, February 25, 2012. The first child of Hubert and Lois Harriman, he was born and raised in New Richmond, Quebec. Jerry was married to Heather Wiseman in 1977 and together they departed "down home" and moved to Alberta in 1978 where Jerry worked as a carpenter. He found his foothold with Rainbow Contractors and dedicated over thirty years to a company that he loved. Dad will be remembered for his hard work and loyalty. He was meticulous about his work and always finished what he started. He enjoyed spending time with his family, watching the game of hockey, venturing into different projects in and around the house, lending a helping hand to friends and family and camping with his wife Heather and all the gang out in Carstairs. Dad loved the Lord Jesus Christ and learning about the ways of our Savior. He will be remembered for his quiet disposition, gentle spirit, sensible insight and practical wisdom. Jerry is predeceased by his youngest son Timothy and survived by his wife of 34 years Heather, and two sons Jerry Jr. (Amy) and Andrew (Michelle). He will be deeply missed by his family and forever cherished by his mom, brother and sisters, brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law and many nieces and nephews. A Funeral Service for Jerry will be held at Airdrie Alliance Church,1604 Summerfield Boulevard, Airdrie on Saturday, March 3, 2012 at 1:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers the family requests that you donate to the Alberta Cancer Foundation, c/o Tom Baker Cancer Centre, 1331 - 29 Street N.W., Calgary, Alberta T2N 4N2 or a charity of your choice. Messages of condolence may be left for the family at www.myalternatives.ca .

Dear Heather, Jerry and Andrew
I have so many memories of Jerry from the years we lived on Westwood Terrace. He was a man who loved his family - that was so clear to anyone who knew you. He always had a smile, he was so fast with a quick comeback to anything you said to him and there was always a twinkle in his eye. Last night I actually dreamed about the beautiful little deck he put on the front of your place in the co-op! I was blessed to be able to see you, Jerry and Tim on PEI when Tim did his Spokeman Tour and will treasure the memories of that time. With much love to all of you.

Part of Jerry's spirit may have passed on to a better place with Tim, but much of it will remain here on earth through Heather, Gerry Jr., Andrew and there loved ones. He moulded and crafted a family over time with as much care as He did his wood creations.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all He left behind as He WILL be sadly missed.
