Obituary
Eleanor Fahey Harris, who loved to be called "Meme by her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, departed her loving family on September 4, 2021,
Eleanor was born on November 28, 1924 in Cortland, New York to Leo F. and Valena Conway Fahey.
On June 24, 1945 in Florence, Arizona Eleanor married Lt. Harold M. Harris who she said looked fantastic in uniform and turned out to be the great love of her life. They went on to create a life filled with laughter, love, and a successful jewelry business in Sidney, Ohio that remains family owned to this day.
Eleanor and Harold raised five children in Sidney, OH until they retired to Vero Beach, Florida in 1978,where they enjoyed their time playing golf, fishing, and visits with their growing family.
In 2006, Eleanor and Harold moved to Wichita Falls, Texas, home of their eldest daughter. After Harold's death in 2008, Eleanor soon took up residence at Rolling Meadows where she and her loving "furry" companion, Molly were the bell of the ball. Eleanor was known for her competitive card playing, quick wit, and impeccable fashion sense. She was a breath of fresh air everywhere she went.
Eleanor is survived by her loving children: Gregory Harris of Sidney, OH, Cynthia McCulloch of Wichita Falls (Tommy), Patricia Laurenzo of Granbury (Steven), Mark Harris of Seneca, SC, (Linda), and Christoper Harris of Wichita Falls.
She is further loved, admired, and respected by her 13 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren who have all been blessed to have been loved by their Meme!
