Jeffrey Harrison Obituary

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Jeffrey (Jeff) Charles Harrison, a beloved son, brother, father, and grandfather. Jeff, aged 58, departed from this world on November 5, 2023 after a valiant and enduring battle with cancer.

The family will receive friends from 5:00pm to 7:00pm on Thursday, November 9, 2023 at Carter-Trent Funeral Home (Downtown Kingsport, TN). An entombment service will be held at 11:00am on Friday, November 10, 2023 at Oak Hill Memorial Park, Mausoleum #4. Those wishing to attend are asked to meet at the Mausoleum at 10:50am. Pallbearers will be Thomas Harrison, Jeff Hutchins, Brian Quillen, Denny Quillen, Brian Olinger, and Phillip Tankersley. Honorary pallbearers are Brian Gibson and James "Pappy" Goins.

We would like to give special thanks to nurses Patsy Mosley and Carey Young, and Chaplin Mike Pelham of Smoky Mountain Home Health & Hospice for their loving care.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to a cancer research charity of your choice, in honor of Jeff's courageous battle.

Jeff will be dearly missed, but his memory will live on through the stories, the cars, the races, and the laughter he shared with all who knew him. May he find eternal peace and the open road in the skies above.
