On Sunday, January 10th, 2021 our dear Dad, Timothy Harrison Sr., was embraced at the gates of Heaven by his parents, his loving wife and son. He leaves behind with lots of love and memories 3 children, Timothy Harrison Jr., Tamborah Harrison, Tracy Hulihan and their spouses Scott Hulihan and Connie Harrison. 13 grandchildren; Desiree, Tonya, Joyce, Jason, Ashley, Nick, Kaitlyn, Hayden, Sydney, Cole, Paige and Ryan. 11 Great grandchildren, Christopher, Joey, Hayzel, Mallary, Richard, Tuscany, Izabella, Elijah, Lilly, Kya and Delilia. Tim was born on January 7, 1942 in Marysville, California to Thomas and Mae Harrison. He grew up in a large loving family of 7 brothers and 2 sisters. Tim joined the Navy at the age of 20 and proudly served his country for 20 years. He then happily worked another 20 years as the Maintenance supervisor at Jacksonville Townhomes. With that came a job description of his favorite pastime, fixing whatever breaks or planning to fix whatever breaks. That would explain the 30 weed eaters in his shed that all just needed the carburetor overhauled. To say Tim loved wholeheartedly is an understatement. In May of 1963 he met Peggy Simmons in Charleston, South Carolina. 7 days later they were married. He stood by her side for 46 years and held her hand as the Good Lord took her. He was so dedicated to her that hospice moved two hospital beds in so he could still sleep by her side throughout her illness. He had no friends - Everyone he met became family. Simple acts of kindness were second nature to him. He never parked in the closest parking space - Because someone else most likely needed it more. He collected tools he would never use just in case a neighbor needed to borrow them. He never wasted his breath on a negative word and as I write this, I see his half smile and head nodding in disapproval because I am not keeping it simple. In honor of Tim’s simplicity, there will be a private service for immediate family. As an expression of sympathy, memorial contributions may be sent to: American Legion Post 233 560 N. Wilderness Trail PVB Florida 32082
