DALE KEITH HARRIS

Dale Keith Harris, 75, of West Monroe, Louisiana, was welcomed home to eternity 
by his Savior, Jesus Christ, on July 26, 2014. Dale was born on June 19, 1939 to 
the parents of George Marion Harris and Willie Mary Smith. Dale was preceded in 
death by his parents; brother, Jessie Clay Harris. Dale is survived by his 
loving wife of 55 years, Saundra Ann Berry Harris; daughter, Jill Harris Ray 
(Rodney) of West Monroe, Louisiana; brother-in-law, Roy Eugene Berry (Cathy) of 
Monroe; sister-in-law, Ila Berry Skeen (Jimmy) of Monroe; grandchildren, Garrett 
Kane Hudson, Brandon Dale Ray, Ryan Andrew Ray (Haylee), and Amber Flores 
(Jesus); great grandkids, Ryan Andrew Ray, Jr, Ella-Kate Opal Ray, Micah 
Alejandro Flores & Isaac Manuel Flores; nephew, George Curtis Harris; niece,

Dale was a 1957 graduate of Ouachita Parish High School and attended Northeast 
Louisiana College (ULM) during which time he faithfully served in the Louisiana 
National Guard for nine years. Dale worked as Director of Vessels and Tanks for 
James Machine Works, Inc. in Monroe, LA for over 35 years and was a member of 
Loch Arbor Baptist Church, Swartz, LA, where he served as Chairman of Deacons 
and taught Sunday School Classes for over 40 years. Dale also proudly served 
with The Gideon International until his health began to fail. He took great 
pleasure in God's creations including fishing and hunting as well as spending 
time with his family and his special K-9 companion, Prissy. Dale had many 
professional accomplishments including the distinguished title of "Inventor" 
because of his two patents with U.S. Government.

The family would like to thank the offices of Dr. Barry Weinberger and Dr. 
William Zollinger for their care of Dale during his battle with cancer.

Our Papaw, as he was affectionately called by his family and loved ones, will be 
dearly missed, but we rejoice in the fact that we will see him again in Heaven.
