Bryan Glenn Harris, beloved husband, father, stepfather, grandfather, brother, and son of the late John and Nancy Harris, passed away peacefully on February 17, 2025, at the age of 64. Born on September 25, 1960, in Barstow, California. Bryan was a cherished member of the community and source of love for his family.
Bryan is survived by his loving wife of 25 years, Terri “Pookie” Harris; his children, Heather Harris, Justin Harris and Jeremy Harris (Jessica); his stepchildren, Amber Forbes (Ken), Ashlei Drabin (Alex) and Autumn Harbert (Larry); his grandchildren, Mikayla, Shianna, Cameron, Sean, Ava, Evan, Zoe, Brayden (Deceased), Addison, Logan, Olivia and Evie; his brothers, John, Scot and Chris. He was a loving and dedicated family man who always put his loved ones first.
Bryan had a passion for the Tampa Bay Rays, Texas Longhorns, solitaire, the rodeo, history, spicy food, and The Lord. He will be remembered for his sense of humor, generosity, kind spirit, and big hugs. Bryan loved making up nicknames for his grandchildren, such as Woogie, Floyd Loyd, Marge, Mertle Sue, and Opie Magilli-cuddy, and taking them to the ice cream shop. His legacy of love and compassion will continue to inspire all who knew him.
Bryan will be deeply missed by his family and friends. We are thankful knowing he was a born-again Christian who knew Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior, and we find comfort in the promise of Heaven, knowing we will see him again.
John 14: 1-4 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me…
A memorial service to celebrate Bryan’s life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to the Wounded Warrior Project in Bryan’s memory.

I will remember you as the the big guy who gave me a hard time about Donnie but made me laugh. Save a spot for Terri, she will eventually find her way to you. For now she has all those grandchildren to play with. Know that she is surrounded by love, family and friendship ❣️RIP

I’m sure going to miss you along with many, we could always count on Bryan to bring laughter to a situation with his witty humor! We had so many fun family times together and many sibling Saturday nights to remember! I am especially happy he has been made in a perfect form until the Lord comes again and that he is seeing all the brilliant colors, running 🏃♀️➡️through meadows, trickling brooks and seeing all the beauty that the Lord speaks of, and oh yes…..singing all day, which he loved to do too! Love from a sister that he never had…. I will remember and miss you until we are all brought together again! Love Kelli

Brian, I’m so heartbreaking over your loss. Words can’t express my emotions I will always miss you. We had some greats times together taking you shopping when you needed to go, buying our lottery tickets but never had the chance to win. You always had a special name for me that was very special to me. And that name was sugar bear. Brian you will always be in my heart and never forgotten ❤️ I love you my buddy!!!
