Harriet Garris

Harriet Cloud Garris, a beloved mother, grandmother, and devoted community member, passed away on February 20, 2025, at the age of 72. Born to the late Fred Cloud Sr. and the late Levolia Walker Cloud, Harriet grew up with a strong sense of family and faith that carried through her entire life. A proud graduate of Lewisville High School, Harriet later became an active member of Union Ezell AME Zion Church, where she faithfully served on the Stewardess Board.

Her positive spirit, infectious laughter, and vibrant personality left a lasting impression on everyone she met.
