Harrisburg

Charles William Harris (affectionately known as Billy) was born on October 30th, 1957 in Harrisburg Pa. He was the son of Sallie R. Banks & George M. Banks (Both Predeceased). Birth Father, Wesley Harris. Billy was a multi-instrumentalist and a visual artist. He transitioned this life on Friday, November 25, 2022, near his childhood home as he succumbed to his long-term stronghold.

 

He leaves a caring family, three siblings: Reverend Dred Scott (Kathryn Scott), Denise R. Williams (Gregory Williams Sr.), and Gina M. Barkley (Reverend Scott Barkley), all of Harrisburg Pa. Four living Aunts: Hattie R. Brice, Fannie R. Davis, Constance R. Bookert, and Carrie E.R.

In the 15th Street & Extended Community, he was reached out to in many ways with acts of love and kindness (where he was also known as Chang, Smiley, and Friendly). A short public service attesting to the truth will be held at Hooper Memorial Funeral home on Saturday, December 3rd at 11:00 am at 3532 Walnut Street Harrisburg Pa. To mitigate the spread of COVID-19 the Repast and Interment will be private and announced to his close family and friends. The family wishes to express its heartfelt thanks to all.
