I just learned a couple of days ago that Bob passed away. A great Blytheville HIgh School and UofA graduate who meant the world to me and a lot of other people, too. He was kind, polite, tenderhearted, very strong-willed, funny, and SO smart. I know Jesus scooped him right up, held him close, and he's with the people he loved who went before him. Enjoy paradise, Bob. I'll see you when I get there.

Bob was not only my first cousin, but also my friend the past seventy years. He was like a brother to me and David. He was a steadfast Christian, loving family Patriarch, and
a loyal, true and faithful friend to all who knew him. His warm and loving spirit filled the room when he entered. He will be missed by so many and was loved by all. Prayers to all his family, children and grandchildren.

I cannot put into words how much Bob Harris helped to grow me into a young man. My memories of my childhood and baseball are still my fondest memories. Bob was the best baseball coach I could have asked for. Rodney & Bob were like having another Father looking out for me. Prayers and much love to the Harris family.

I worked with Bob for several years at ADH and always enjoyed his sense of humor. We enjoyed reminiscing over Dilbert, B.C., Bloom County, Garfield and FAR SIDE cartoons ... "Bummer of a birthmark, Hal" was our favorite. Gonna miss you, Hammer.

Ben - Trey, never had the pleasure to meet you guys. Your dad and I did business and had a personal relationship over the last few decades. I remember the time he bailed me out to complete a Wal-Mart in Stuttgart when the GC couldn't find a steel erector to finish after theirs walked off the project. He was a man of integrity, his word was his bond. Needless to say we hit it off with that event and became good friends over the years. We shared many of the same ideas about life. I will miss him greatly as will countless others. He has touched so many lives and helped so many others and I think that was his goal. If there is anything I can ever do for you, please allow me to repay a favor to your dad and reach out. Here to help in any way. God Bless and please accept my condolences for your loss.
