Kendall Clark “Skeet” Harrison

Obituary Date: Thursday, September 14, 2017

Kendall Clark “Skeet” Harrison, age 76 went to be with his Lord on Thursday, September 14, 2017. 

Skeet was born on December 9, 1940 in Habersham County to the late Harber Frank Harrison and Gussie Ivester Harrison.  In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his aunt, Dennie Ivester Dover.

He was a loving husband, father, father in law, and grandfather.  Skeet was an amazing man who had a gentle nature- showing much love, patience, and kindness to loved ones and strangers alike.  He had a great love for sports, and his knowledge was overwhelming.  He enjoyed golf, hunting, and Nascar, but he especially loved his Georgia Bulldogs.  He was known to extend an open invitation to his family and friends so they could enjoy the games with him. 

Skeet was loved by everyone who knew him and his presence was always a blessing to them. 

He is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Jean Giles Harrison of Hollywood; his son and daughter in law, Billy and Aileen Harrison; four grandchildren, Ella Grace, Kaela Shae, Riley, and Ashton; sister, Pat Harrison Galloway of Shirley Grove; and brother, Kenneth “Sonny” Harrison of Clayton. 

The family will receive friends from 6-8:00 P.M. Saturday at Hillside. 

Funeral service will be 2:00 P.M. Sunday in Hillside Chapel.  Interment will follow in Mt. Zion Baptist Church Cemetery. 

Online condolences may be sent to the family at HillsideMemorialChapel.com
