Corrie Jay Harlow

Born on July 8, 1973, Corrie was a man whose life was rooted in family, friendship, and agriculture. He had a true passion for farming and took immense pride in his beloved Dairy-Ayr Farms, where he spent countless hours doing what he loved most. Corrie was especially passionate about showing cows and cherished the friendships and memories made through the “Moo Crew” a group that brought him tremendous joy and camaraderie over the years.

Beyond his own love for showing cattle, Corrie was a mentor to many young people in the show community. He took great pride in teaching, guiding, and encouraging the girls who showed cattle alongside him, always willing to share his knowledge, experience, and honest advice both in and out of the show ring. His impact on them extended far beyond livestock, leaving lessons and memories they will carry with them for years to come.

In addition to his life on the farm, Corrie dedicated many years of service to Spectrum, where he worked as a Tech Ops Supervisor. He was respected by colleagues for his strong work ethic, leadership, and commitment throughout his long career.

Corrie was preceded in death by his loving mother, Sharon Coates Harlow, and his sister, Carrie Beth Harlow Byrd.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Cherrie Pace Harlow; his father, Donnie Harlow; brother-in-law Robert Pace (Lorie); nieces Destiny Atwell (Jordan), Anna Pace, and Addison Harlow; nephew Clayton Harlow; great-nephew Mathias Atwell; honorary nieces Cali Reis, Ela Hall, and Emma Kate Smith; and honorary nephew Lane Smith.

Corrie also leaves behind special loved ones Brent Smith (Julie), along with many extended family members, friends, coworkers, and fellow cattle enthusiasts whose lives were touched by his kindness, sarcasm, humor, and generous spirit.

Corrie will be remembered for his love of family, his dedication to his work, his passion for agriculture, and the countless memories made with those who knew and loved him. His presence will be deeply missed, but his legacy will live on through the family farm, the friendships he built, and the many lives he impacted.
