David was born on October 25, 1968 to Delfina (Sugar) Zamora and David (Bear) Harrison Sr. and was a lifetime resident of Deming.
David had a passion for hunting and the outdoors. He loved his family, and his friends. He was known to the family as "The Friendliest Man in Town" as he never met a stranger. He would become friends with anyone and everyone. He had a heart of gold and would give anyone his last dollar or the shirt off his back.
He is survived by the love of his life, his wife, Irma, of 27 years. His sons, Dustin Harrison of Deming, NM, Dylan Harrison of Capitan, NM, and his daughter Rheanne (Joshua) Vogel of Mayhill, NM. His stepsons David Valenzuela and Paul (Opal) Valenzuela of Deming, NM. His grandchildren Dallas Harrison, Krystin Rayson, Jayden Valenzuela, Sterling Vogel, Anthony Valenzuela, Lola Vogel, and Madilynn Valenzuela. Sisters Carolina Missy (Gary) Leyba, Cathy (Jaison) Bryan and brother Dale (Camille) Harrison, and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents Bear and Sugar Harrison, his mother and father-in-law, Ray and Olin Herrera, and his nephew Anthony Cordova.

I am sorry I cannnot attend the Celebration of Life for David. He was one of my favorite students. We worked hard to learn so much that would make him successful in his life choices. He was so nice to everyone, caring, fun, and appreciative of his friends and teachers. He motivated me to be a better teacher because he wanted to learn. Please accept my prayers on this day. Thank you. Ann Chrestman

What I enjoyed was that you always looked at me when we were fishing together and we always had green tea.

What will always remind me of my papa was that we used to always go fishing together.
