Carrie Johnson wrote a sympathy message

“My girls and I will always miss Harris. He was generous of humor and kindness to my daughters, Katherine and Jacqueline, and they always considered him "Grandpa Harris". He and Mom opened their beautiful Siesta Key homes to my family for many vacations. We cherish fun memories of those vacations, and many holidays spent together. God bless the Kretzmeier family as they mourn the loss of their father and grandfather. May Harris rest in God's arms. Carrie Trout Johnson”
