Obituary of Marc R. Harris

Please share a memory of Marc to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
On October 22, 2021, Marc R. Harris went home to be with the Lord. Marc was born on December 20, 1957, in Camden, NJ to the late Edward G. Harris and Barbara B. (Bryant) Harris. He spent his primary education in the catholic school system and graduated from St. Joseph High School. He continued his education at Rutgers University, where he obtained a Bachelor of Business Administration degree. Marc spent the latest portion of his career as a manager, most recently of Customer Service, at American Honda Finance Corporation in Delaware. Previously unheard of, Marc and his colleagues achieved the highest Customer Service award in the country three years in a row. Also, he engaged in the mentorship of several young employees at the company many of whom went on to achieve success in their careers. Throughout his life, Marc accumulated numerous memories that brought him joy and happiness. Often, he regaled his memories of serving as his son’s youth football coach, particularly when they won the championship game. He reveled in traveling to his sons’ various basketball tournaments and being a spectator for his nieces as they competed in various sporting events. Marc was a connoisseur of Jazz, enjoying its therapeutic effect during his drive to and from work. He sought pleasure in a multitude of activities such as online chess, savoring a good cigar, and embracing the calm of the Caribbean’s white beach sands and blue water. He took pride and pleasure in spending time and building memories with his wife Paulette, his sons Marc, Erik and Dexter, and numerous family and friends. Marc began his relationship with the Lord at an early age and was baptized as a young adult. In recent years, he attended services at Green Grove Baptist Church in Berlin, NJ. Marc’s most valued scripture was “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight.” (Proverbs 3: 5-6 NIV). Marc leaves to cherish his memories, his devoted wife Paulette S. Harris, his loving sons Marc R. Harris II of Largo, Florida, Erik E. Harris of Brooklyn, NY, and Dexter A. Harris of Lancaster, PA, his sister Lori Harris-Ransom (Frederick) of South River, NJ, his two brothers Scott Harris (Mimi) of Cherry Hill, NJ and Keith Harris (Leslie) of Newark, DE, six nieces, two nephews, his cousin Dicky Harris, two special friends Galen Norwood and Wade Rouse along with a host of other loving family and friends.
