Kenneth (Ken) Heath Harrison of Cherry Hill, NJ was tragically taken from us on November 27, 2024 at the age of 51.
Ken was an incredibly devoted father to his daughter, Sarah Harrison, and their dog Max. He was a loving son to Joan Harrison (née Reagle) and the late Herbert Harrison, Jr. Ken was a cherished brother to William Harrison and his wife Karyn, Herbert Harrison III, Ronald Harrison and his wife Catherine, and Laura Harrison. He is also survived by his nephew Joshua and nieces Megan, Gabriela, Madeline, and Katharine, as well as his former wife, Anne Harrison.
A proud alumnus of Cherry Hill High School East, Ken furthered his education at the Philadelphia College of Textiles and Science and studied computer aided drafting. He dedicated many years to Par 4 Landscaping where he helped design hardscapes and landscapes prior to his 18 year career with Bach Associates, PC which he loved and valued until his passing.
Ken was a man of many talents and hobbies. He especially loved woodworking and the outdoors. He and his 3 brothers grew up exploring the woods and he shared that love with his nieces who have treasured memories of sledding with their uncle, while his nephew fondly remembers running around his backyard with Max. More than anything, he valued quality time spent with loved ones. He was known for his hospitality, especially around the holidays. Ken was incredibly kind-hearted and generous; his family, friends, and neighbors knew that they could count on him for anything.
For 10 years, Ken coached his daughter Sarah on multiple softball teams and put all that he had into mentoring the girls and instilling in them sportsmanship, accountability, and the love of the game. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made in Ken's memory to Cherry Hill American Little League, PO Box 2532, Cherry Hill, NJ 08034. This gesture honors Ken's generous spirit and his decade-long commitment to coaching girls' softball, a testament to his love for the community and the sport.
Ken's life will be celebrated with a memorial service at Schetter Funeral Home, 304 West Route 70, Cherry Hill, NJ 08002. Friends and family are invited to gather on Saturday, December 14th for visitation from 9 -11 am, followed by service and personal tributes from 11 am -12 pm.
