Most Recent Reflection
View all 16 ReflectionsElmer Harris will never be forgotten, he was my uncle also and as my Brother Rory stated was my inspiration and I looked up to him, I often had difficult periods and he would always show up and be there for me. I will always remember the day that he saw me in uniform with a babge and a pistol on my side, I could remember seeing the look of pride in his face as to say good job nephew. That was the last time I saw him alive. I will always love my uncle Elmer Murray Harris.
