On July 6, 2024, Edward and Mark came down to Plum Branch, S.C. for the Family gathering, we all were so very happy that he could make it because we were so worried that he would not be here. We all had a wonderful together. As we all sat outside talking about our parents and the time we were growing up. I remember him saying to me, Trisha, your daughter is not that far from me, and I am so glad I know all of you all children. He talked about how closed our parents was. Then he laughed and said you better not Make them Harrison women mad they didn't play. As we talked on, I said to him Edward I am so glad you are here, he began to talk about his illness then said I thank God for what it is. For me and to me that was a special moment. I do Thank God that we had that time with him and Mark. Your pains are over Love Cousin Trisha
