Lindsey Harris Obituary

Lindsey Harris

Nov. 3, 1986 - July 17, 2023

MADISON - Lindsey Harris was born on November 3, 1986. She was a beautiful baby and loved by everyone in Upper Sandusky, OH, where she lived the first three years of her life. She always had a smile for everyone. Lindsey was a self-assured child with a gift of gab. The first time she got on the school bus she never looked back to see her sobbing mother and proud dad. She was already chatting with new friends. She attended Middleton High School where she was the manager for the state champion boy's soccer team.

After graduation, Lindsey attended the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee where she majored in marketing - probably planning to take over her dad's advertising agency one day. During college Lindsey worked at the Pfister Hotel where she was adopted by the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team. In fact, after they won the pennant, they wanted Lindsey to give a speech. All she could say was "I love you guys."

Lindsey got engaged in 2019, and in 2020 she gave birth to her son, Wesley, who was her pride and joy.

Lindsey will be missed by her brother, Brian;, her mother, Renee; her father, Wayne; and her good friend, Jim Sherwood; as well as numerous relatives and friends.

Our Angel left us way too soon.
