Ken graduated from Reagan High School and immediately joined the United States Army. He served in combat in Viet Nam and was honorably discharged with the rank of Sergeant E-5. He went on to a career in Information Technology in both the public and private sectors.
Some of the people Ken loved most passed on before him and are with him now--his mother and father, Curtis and Evelyn Harris, and his son, Kenneth Curtis (KC) Harris.
He is survived by his adored wife Judy Speer Harris.
Ken fully enjoyed retirement. He loved fishing, sports, cooking, and doing things with the tractor.
Ken lived on a place he felt was his own little slice of heaven here on Earth. He filled it with all manner of furry and feathered friends—including wallabies.
Ken was simply a great guy of the style not seen much anymore. He was a man of his word and a true friend. He was strong in his faith and brave in the face of adversity. He was also incredibly funny and kind-hearted.
We will miss him terribly and carry him in our hearts until we reunite.
Graveside services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, July 25, 2021 at Cook-Walden/Memorial Hill cemetery in Pflugerville, Texas
In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Wounded Warrior Project.
