Chesapeake – Ronald S. Harrison, 63, died peacefully surrounded by family, Saturday, January 16th 2016 – after a brief but exhausting battle with liver cancer.

He is survived by his sons, Blaine Steven Harrison and Justin Adam Harrison; his brother Floyd Allen Harrison (and wife Carla Harrison); former spouse Frances Kaye Carney; and his best friend and life partner Mary Patricia Moore.

Sorry for your loss! Prayers of comfort coming your way during this sad time. 🙁
Ron is someone who will be missed by many, I remember when my sister and I brought a little rescue dog , Jamie, to the house for my mother, well it did not take long to realize that Jamie wanted little to do with Mom and everything to do with Ron. Jamie fell instantly in love with him and Ron fell in love with her too. God bless and comfort all those grieving his loss, including his best friend Jamie.
I am sorry for your loss and offer my sympathy. God is aware of the tears each of you shed. (Psalm 56:8) Soon he will do what is recorded at John 5:28,29, which makes the promise of the resurrection of our loved ones. May that give you comfort, hope, and peace, knowing that God always fulfills his promises. (Numbers 23:19)
