IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Ralph C.
Harris
January 6, 1949 – November 13, 2025
Ralph C. Harris, beloved husband, father, pop pop, brother, and friend, passed away on November 13, 2025, at the age of 76. He was born in Reading, Pa to Robert F. Harris Sr. and Fern J. Harris (née Petree) who preceded him in death, along with his beloved step-father Anthony Brill.
Ralph is survived by his devoted wife, Lillian V. Harris (née Noll), and his cherished sons: Randy A. Harris and his wife Jenne, Joey L. Harris, and his wife Karen, and his youngest son Kerry D. Harris. He took great joy in his role as a pop pop to grandchildren: Ashley, Andrew, Devin, Mason, Cole, and great-grandchildren Lucy and Hudson.
Ralph also leaves behind his twin brother, Robert F. Harris Jr. and his wife Diane, and his brother Richard (R.J.) Harris and his wife Bonnie, along with numerous brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces, and nephews.
Growing up on Locust Street in Reading, Ralph graduated from Reading High School in 1967, where he was affectionately known as "Kid" Harris. Ralph worked at Prestolite and Carpenter Technology, where he was respected for his hard work and commitment.
Ralph was a lifelong fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Brooklyn/Los Angeles Dodgers, and he had a passion for classic cars, often sharing his love for them at local car shows. More than anything, Ralph cherished his family and was known for his ability to bring laughter to his grandchildren's lives with his unique personality and humor.
Ralph will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His legacy of love, joy, and devotion to family will forever remain in our hearts.
