Cedric Harris Sr

Cedric Harris Sr, 59, was born on October 13, 1962, in St. Louis, Missouri.  He was the son of Donald O’Connor and Anne Mae (Brown) Harris.

Cedric grew up in St. Louis and received his education from the Wellston Public Schools. 

In his younger years Cedric was a talented boxer, often competing in tournaments like the Golden Gloves.  He loved music, especially old school R& B music.  Cedric loved having a good time. While younger that was going out but as he got on in the years it was going to family events.   He was the comedian of the family, always kept people laughing and was always able to come up with a joke.  Cedric was full of life and it spilled over onto whoever was around him, making the time spent with him unforgettable.  He was a great brother and a loving dad.  When it came to family get-togethers he was always the first one there.  Cedric lived life to the fullest and he fought as long and as hard as he could.  Towards the end, Cedric accepted Christ, and is now reunited with his loved ones.

Cedric Harris Sr went to his eternal home on Wednesday, May 25, 2022, at the age of 59 years.  He was preceded in death by his father Donald O’Connor; his mother Anne Mae Harris; and his sisters Camille and Barbara.
