It is with heavy hearts and great sadness that we announce the passing of Jerry Harriman who passed away at the Tom Baker Center on Saturday February 25, 2012. The first child of Hubert and Lois Harriman, he was born and raised in New Richmond, Quebec. Jerry was married to Heather Wiseman in 1977 and together they departed ‘down home’ and moved to Alberta in 1978 where Jerry worked as a carpenter. He found his foothold with Rainbow Contractors and dedicated over thirty years to a company that he loved.
Dad will be remembered for his hard work and loyalty. He was meticulous about his work and always finished what he started. He enjoyed spending time with his family, watching the game of hockey, venturing into different projects in and around the house, lending a helping hand to friends and family and camping with his wife Heather and all the gang out in Carstairs. Dad loved the Lord Jesus Christ and learning about the ways of our Savior. He will be remembered for his quiet disposition, gentle spirit, sensible insight and practical wisdom.
Jerry is predeceased by his youngest son Timothy and survived by his wife of 34 years Heather, and two sons Jerry Jr.(Amy) and Andrew (Michelle). He will be deeply missed by his family and forever cherished by his mom, brother and sisters, brother in-laws and sister in-laws and many nieces and nephews.
A Funeral Service for Jerry will be held at Airdrie Alliance Church,1604 Summerfield Blvd., Airdrie on Saturday March 3, 2012 at 1:00 p.m.
