Frank Harris
June 4, 1945 — November 7, 2020
Mr. Orville “Frank” Harris, age 75, passed away on the morning of Saturday, November 7th, 2020 surrounded by his family at his home in Blackshear, Ga.
Mr. Harris was born June 4th, 1945 in Kansas City, Mo. to the late Orville and Fern Harris. He joined the Navy after high school and enjoyed his travels during his time in the service. After retiring from the Navy, Mr. Harris continued his joy of travelling as a truckdriver. He absolutely loved ball games and never missed a local county high school game. Every Friday he would be at a game and anytime he travelled to see the Wildcats play he would take his granddaughter, Ashley along. He loved his grandchildren more than anything and was always there when they needed him. He was a cool, calm, laid back and funny person. He loved to people watch and sit on the porch with family to drink coffee. Mr. Harris was always the one in the family to make you laugh and even if he was being yelled at by his wife, he would turn it into a laughable moment as he would egg her on. He will be missed greatly by all who knew and loved him.
Mr. Harris is survived by his wife, Margarett Harris of Blackshear, Ga.; his daughter, Sheila Mae Harris, and her fiancé, Marvin Lee, Jr. of Kingsland, Ga.; his grandchildren, Ashley Clark, Gregory Davis, and Matthew Lee, all of Kingsland, Ga., David Barton, Jr. of Tucson, Az., Nathan and Zachary August of Il., Tori and Amber Harris of Jacksonville, Fl., and Timothy Proctor of Blackshear, Ga.; his numerous great-grandchildren; and his niece and her husband, Mindy and Gene Murray.
Besides his parents, Mr. Harris was preceded in passing by his first wife, Roberta “Bert” Hamlin Harris; his daughter, Angela Harris, his son, William “Billy” Harris, and his granddaughter, Courtney Harris.
A visitation will be held from 11 am to 12 noon, Friday November 13th, 2020 at Coastal Camden Funeral Home in Kingsland, Ga. Funeral services will follow immediately at noon in the Woods-Wainwright Chapel of the funeral home. Interment will be at Homeland Cemetery in Folkston, Ga. Timothy Proctor, Gregory Davis, Tommy Davis, and Matthew Lee will serve as Pallbearers. Marvin Lee, Jr. and David Barton, Jr. will serve as honorary pallbearers.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that live plants be given as a memorial for Mr. Harris.
