Iverne, As I sit to write this my heart is broken. You were the first person to hold me when I was born. We were always connected but even more when I lost my mother, Genevieve and you lost Marcie. We shared our lives with all our joys and sorrows. I will miss you with all my heart and soul. My memories will sustain me. Be at peace now that you will be next to your beloved Walter and Marcie. May your memory be a blessing. I love you. Claudia

My dearest Nana, For all the words we’ve shared, I’m at a near loss for them now. I’ve been blessed beyond measure to have known you. I have proudly described you as the “Forrest Gump of Nanas” for the extraordinary woman you are and the life you lived, which you shared stories of as though they were so simple and common. The past came alive, the violin and piano music swirled, the characters were all so vivid. I relived it all through your memories and only wish I had your keen recall so I could have kept each word. I treasure the memories of your sharing them with me and those will never leave my heart. I know how much you longed to be with Papa. I’ve never known a couple with deeper devotion or a more enduring love, longer than many lifetimes. I’m certain you didn’t want to spend one more anniversary apart and so you went, to be there in time to celebrate this one with your beloved Walter once again. Papa and Marcie and countless other dear ones must have greeted you with such love and joy. As I know you will for me one day. I’m grateful, Nana. So incredibly grateful. For the time we did have together, even if it would never be enough. For the warmth of your welcome. For giving me so much. My heritage. My open, kind, and curious heart. The stories of our family. I promise to be the story keeper now and pass on what I can. I will see you, Nana, in the small dimple of my smile. And in my son’s brows, and in my daughter’s hands, in their musical gifts, and so much more. And I will hear you, as I already do, joyfully greeting me, “sweetheart!” and gently guiding me with your wisdom. You will never be far from me. As you sit holding Papa’s hand once more, please give him a kiss on the cheek from the kids and me and know how much we love you both. You are missed more than words can say and I pray you’ll watch over us until we are all together again someday. I love you, my Nana. ❤️ Carissa

When I was young, I had a short job waitressing at the Radison downtown Minneapolis. Two beautifully dressed, classy women were seated in my section and they were clearly having a great time on their trip together visiting Minnesota. They saw my name tag with the family name Harris prominently displayed. They asked who my parents were, and they told me they were Margaret and Iverne just in town visiting the Harris family! They hugged me and wanted me to sit down with them! They told me some great stories. I had such a warm and wonderful time bringing them breakfast. 50 years later, thanks to granddaughter Carrisa, I got the opportunity to talk with Iverne again. She remembered everything about our meeting at the Raddison! What a fantastic, “photographic memory“ she had. She explained to me as part of her musical career she had to memorize each note played on the piano for the greatest of pianists. She learned quickly how to absorb data in her brain then “ lock it down”. I taped her talking about the Harris family with her detailed memories of each of the Harris “boys”. Listening to it, I’m saddened we’ve lost this legendary voice of the Harris family. Much love to all her family ❤️ devorah ( Aaron’s granddaughter, Bob & Jean’s daughter)

Iverne was such a dear friend and we will miss her so! She is now at peace and with Walter and Marcie which she has missed so much. I will miss our calls but so lucky to have had you in my life. Rest in peace. Love you, Cindy and Jon Miller ❤️

Mom, As we come into this world, we are not given the option of selecting our parents. I, however, was fortunate beyond any expectation to have been blessed with mine. You were at my bedside throughout my earliest memories and I am grateful to have been at yours in your last days. Nobody could love you more. Thank you from my heart of hearts for giving me my life and it's lessons. Rest well in the forever comfort of God's hands and know that you are now reunited with the ones you missed so much. At peace forever. I will join you again in the not-to-distant future. Until then, As much love as always, Mark
