Charlene Denise Harrison, 72, a beloved member of the Paint Rock community, passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 31, 2024. 

She was born on October 14, 1952, to Mel and Marie (Kinman) Bowman, in San Angelo, Texas. Charlene graduated from Mexia High School in 1971. In February 1972 she married Douglas Michael Harrison in Colorado City, Texas. 

As a dedicated wife and mother she spent her days serving God, her family and others with kindness and grace. She was passionate about music and always looked forward to playing bass and singing with her father, nearby neighbors, family and her church. Charlene was a dedicated fisherman and loved going out on the lake or just sitting on a dock letting her husband, Mike, bait her hook.
