Judy F. Harris, 83, of Harrison, Tennessee, passed away peacefully at her home on Wednesday, December 4, 2024.

Judy worked at Cutter Laboratory and then Olan Mills, from where she retired. She enjoyed camping with her late husband, trips to Pigeon Forge, Tn., with her sisters and daughter, and she loved spending time with her family. Like it or not, Judy was a proud passenger on the Trump Train and was not afraid to let anyone know this either. We are so happy that she was with us long enough to celebrate his victory!

She was preceded in death by her first husband of 10 years, Edward H. Leamon; her second husband of 45 years, Johnny H. Harris; a son, Burle E. Leamon and her son-in-law, Paul R. Denton.

Judy is survived by her two daughters, Sandi Mitchell of Trion, Ga., and Cheri Denton of Harrison, Tn.; son, Mike (Pam) Harris of Cleveland, Tn.; grandchildren, Eric (Lori) Mitchell of Chickamauga, Ga., Brandi (John) Nolan of LaFayette, Ga., Amanda (John) Smith of LaFayette, Ga., Lynn (Bri) Leamon of Birchwood, Tn., Holly Leamon of Harrison, Tn., U.S. Army Captain Jacob Denton, stationed in Chester, Va.; several great-grandchildren and many other relatives and friends.

The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Hearth Hospice for their love, compassion and care they provided to our Mom and family.

The family will receive friends from 4-8 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7, and from noon until the time of service on Sunday, Dec. 8, at the funeral home.

A Celebration of Life will be held at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 8, in the funeral home chapel with Bill Mathis officiating.
