Paul Ray Harris

Paul was proud to be from Missouri and never knew a stranger. He could converse with most people about most things. He loved life and the Lord and died peacefully at 82 years young in Albuquerque, NM after a 3-month illness.

He was born in El Dorado Springs, Missouri to Charles Harris and Lydia Luellen (Macrae) Harris- the youngest of six children. He moved to New Mexico in 1964 to work for the Bureau of Land Management after serving four years in the US Navy in Okinawa. He had a career in lumber and industrial sales industries, and eventually operated Paul Harris Sales Company for 20 + years. He was married to Dorothy Leyva Harris for 54 years and they enjoyed many fur babies throughout their marriage. He is survived by his brother, Carl; sister, Ada; sister-in-law, Nancy; and many nephews and nieces. His brothers, Ernest and Frank; and sister, Lorene predeceased him.

A Celebration of Life Service will be held at FRENCH- Lomas on Thursday, October 20, 2022, 10:00 a.m., presented by Roadrunner Hospice Chaplain, Roger Weber.
