David Harmon Obituary

Visit the Heindl-Nimsgern Funeral & Cremation Services - Phillips website to view the full obituary.

David F. Harmon, a devoted father, cherished brother, and beloved uncle, passed away peacefully after a courageous battle with cancer. His strength, kindness, and unwavering love for his family remained constant throughout his life, leaving a legacy of compassion and resilience that will be remembered by all who knew him.


Born on December 18, 1958, to Carl and Lilian (Lontcoski) Harmon, David grew up on the family farm, where he learned the value of hard work, loyalty, and togetherness. He later ran the farm alongside his brothers Tom and Henry, a role that brought him great pride and kept him closely connected to the land and the life he loved.


From the age of sixteen, David also served the town of Hackett as a part time grader operator. For decades, he took great care in maintaining the roads his community relied on, always showing up with dedication and a quiet sense of responsibility.


David was preceded in death by his wife, Charolette, whom he loved dearly.


He is survived by his son Mark(Alyissa Jones) and his treasured grandson Levi, all of Phillips. He is also survived by his stepdaughters Samantha Chizek of Prentice and Sarah (Timothy) Oelhafen of Brantwood, along with his grandson Eli, who brought him great joy.


David leaves behind his brothers Tom (Mary Ann), Edwin, and Henry Harmon, as well as his sister Barbara Johnson of Phillips. He is further survived by five nephews, two nieces, five great nephews, and five great nieces, all of whom held a special place in his heart.


A celebration of David’s life will be held on February 28, 2026, at the Midway Tavern and Cabins from 1:00–4:00 p.m. Family and friends are invited to gather, share memories, and honor the life of a man who meant so much to so many.


David’s memory will continue to live on in the stories shared, the love he gave, and the lives he touched. May he rest in peace.
