Kevin Henry Harris
52, of Harrison, New Jersey, formerly of Smithfield, Ohio, passed away on November 19th in Wynnewood, Pennsylvania. He was preceded in death by his father, Gene Henry Harris and a sister Bertha Mae Harris. He was a 1982 graduate of Buckeye North High School In Brilliant, Ohio, and excelled at football for the College of Wooster, being Named All-conference 2 years consecutively. He continued his career for the semi professional New Jersey Giants football club. His athletic passion continued to flourish throughout the rest of his life through his love for the Ohio State Buckeyes and Pittsburgh Steelers and his daughters' basketball teams. He is survived by his mother Anna L.

He was a General Manager for the Philadelphia office of Electronic Merchant Systems, where he was considered by his co-workers to be a "professor of the trade". This position was the culmination of a tremendously multifaceted sales and management career.
He was a proud father, who considered his most impressive accomplishments to be his daughters Heather and Jessica.
