Christopher John Harris, III

May 9, 1963 - April 16, 2016

Chris Harris, age 52 of Jackson, passed away peacefully at home on April 16, 2016. Chris was a graduate of Marlboro High School, afterwards working as a welder, side by side with his father and best friend. He and his dad would go on to own several businesses including EZ Chicken in Old Bridge and Jake’s Bar and Liquor Store in Sayreville. After his father’s passing in 1993, Chris became a member of Local 9 and enjoyed many years as a master welder. He and his beloved wife, Sharon (O’Connor), were married for 20 years and were blessed with their beautiful daughter, Kelsey. Chris would always say Kelsey was the best thing he’s ever done. Chris had a unique, fun loving personality and will be remembered with a smile by all he met. He was a caring husband, father, son, brother and friend who left us too soon. His favorite pastime and passion was fishing on the Jersey Shore. According to Chris nobody caught more or bigger fish. He always had a story to tell about his everyday life but none more exciting than the ‘one that got away’. Predeceased by his father, Christopher J. Harris, Sr., in 1993, father-in-law, James O’Connor in 2010 and brother-in-law, Danny O’Connor in 2015, he is survived by his mother, Jane (Harris) Murray, his wife Sharon, daughter Kelsey, two sisters, Kathy Anderson and husband Ralph Anderson and Patricia McKenna and husband Richard McKenna, mother-in-law, Jean O’Connor, sisters-in-law, Kathy O’Connor and husband Tommy, Maureen Kennedy and husband Gary and Linda O’Connor as well as 13 nieces and nephews. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Clean Ocean Action, 18 Hartshorne Drive, #2, Highlands, NJ 07732 or www.cleanoceanaction.org
