Just recently heard of his death. He is surely missed. He was my doctor for thirty years. My daughter Summer worked for him. We loved him very much. He was a kind, sweet and caring human being. A gentleman in every sense of the word. We miss him. May God bless his family he left behind.

To the Harrison family.
Dr. Harrison and I worked together at CFB Lahr. Those were the days with great memories. He was also my doctor upon our return to Ottawa in 1989, following a posting to Damascus. He was a role model, a friend and will always be remembered. Eileen, we had fun on the tours from Lahr.
Thank you for your care and attention. RIP.

Everthing came to a standstill when I heard of the passing of Dr. Harrison and the emotions I felt. I worked for Dr. Harrison and he was one of the nicest and kindest people I have known.I am saddened that his children lost him just before Fathers day. My thoughts and prayers go to this fine gentlemans family.

Warren and I were neighbours and childhood friends growing up in Okla, Sask. Together with the late Arliegh (Duff) McDonald, we were the Three Musketeers in the little hamlet, getting into all sorts of mischief together. I located a rather grainy 1952 picture of the three of us in the forward line of the then famous Okla Blackhawks. I share this with you, his family so that you can celebrate his life a bit better. Oh, yes, Mary Lou also met him in his professional capacity and he came to see her years later in the cancer ward of the Ottawa General. We were proud to be a little part of his life.
With sincere condolences, Paul & Mary Lou Pospisil, Maberly, Ontario.

Dear Chloe, Martin and Patrick, I am so sorry to hear about your Dad, and even sorrier that I did not hear the news in time to attend his service last night. I think of you three and your parents (and Snag!) so often with such happy memories. Your names will often come up when we are reminiscing around the Longbottom dinner table. I would love to hear from you, you can reach me at [email protected]. Love, Susan xoxoxo

Many years ago, Bud & I went to Hendon to visit Aunt Aggie and Uncle Bert and I was to meet Warren for the first time. I had heard so much about Chess so was eagerly awaiting the match between Warren and Bud. What a disappointment! They sat all afternoon staring at this board and never said a word. My first impression of Chess was not a good one. Rest in Peace Warren

Dr Harrison delivered two of my babes and continued care for me for 25 years. His calm, confident and warm nature were matched by no other physician in my life. Blessings to Barbara and family.

My deepest sympathies to all his family. Warren is responsible for saving so many lives. His smiles, hugs and comfort given freely without compensation. He served in the forces and for that alone we all are in his debt. Everyone who knows me is in his debt. Everyone who knows my daughter is in his debt. Our world got a lot quieter and sadder upon hearing this news this morning. God bless you all.
