Charles
Harrison
March 22, 1930 – October 8, 2022
Mr. Charles Harrison, age 92, of Opp, Alabama passed away Saturday, October 8, 2022 in the Opp Health & Rehab.
Charles was born March 22, 1930 in Geneva County, Alabama to his late parents, Pearlie & Brack Harrison. His parents were tenant farmers, so the family moved around quite a bit as children and young adults. Charles settled down in Toledo, Ohio where he proudly worked and retired from Chrysler-Jeep Automotive after thirty-three years of service. He was always proud of his Alabama roots; therefore, it was only fitting that he and Pat move back to Alabama after his retirement.
Mr. Harrison is survived by his wife of fifty-four years, Patricia Ann Schenavar Harrison; daughter, Mary Evelyn Lanning & husband, Joe; step-daughter, Deborah Halsey; step-sons, James Smith & Marcy, William Smith & Janet, Randal Smith & Marcia and Christopher Slomkowski & Beth; step-daughter-in-law, Joyce Smith; brothers, Winston Harrison, Nick Harrison and Don Harrison; 21 grandchildren & numerous great & great-great grandchildren. Along with his parents, he was preceded in death by his son, David Harrison; sisters, Ouida White, Fleeta Schadenfroh and Juanita Sigman; brothers, Wilmer Harrison and Winfred Harrison; and step-son, Lawrence Smith.
