Obituary of Jeff Harris
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved husband,
dad, son, brother, and uncle. Surrounded by his loving family, Jeff passed peacefully on
December 6, 2024.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank the wonderful staff at St. Mary's Hospital,
especially for the exceptional care provided by Dr. Rebecca Kruisselbrink, Shannon
Quennell, and the many nurses in the ICU who cared for Jeff and our family during this
time.
Jeff is survived by his loving wife, Donna, and two children, Graydon and Lauren. He is
also survived by his dear mother, Rev. Judi Harris; siblings, Joy Harris and Keith Harris;
sister-in-law, Carol Stewart (Steve); and niece, Kyra Stewart.
He was predeceased by his father, James T. Harris.
Jeff impacted the lives of so many people as a financial advisor, serving on several
boards, including Trinity Village, Parents for Community Living, Martin Luther University
College, and KidsAbility, and through the way he conducted himself in life.
For the funeral, we encourage everyone to wear something green in honour of Jeff’s
beloved Philadelphia Eagles and his love of golf.
