Listen to Obituary

Irma Louise "Pat" Harris, age 76, of Conway, Arkansas, was welcomed Home by her Heavenly Father on June 24, 2025.

Born on August 15, 1948, Irma was the beloved daughter of Otis and Tressie Bush. She was preceded in death by her parents; her loving husband, Cleo Harris; her brothers Glen, Loyd, and Kenneth; and her sister, Ethil.

Irma graduated from Arkansas State Teacher's College in Conway and began her career as an educator in Bigelow, Arkansas. She was also a devoted homemaker who found great joy in caring for others.

A lifelong member of Friendship Baptist Church, Irma faithfully served her congregation for many years. Music was her passion, and she played the piano for worship services and children's church, and taught children's Sunday school with warmth and dedication. She and her husband, Cleo, along with her brother, Louis, enjoyed attending Faulkner County Singing Conventions throughout the years. Irma's life was marked by her love for the Lord and her passion for serving others, which she did with grace and humility.

Left to cherish her memory is her brother, Raymond Louis Bush, along with numerous cousins, nieces, nephews, and a host of friends who loved her dearly.

Visitation will be held on Friday, June 27, at 1:00 p.m., followed by a funeral service at 2:00 p.m. at Friendship Baptist Church, 767 Rocky Point Road, Conway, Arkansas with Rev. Ken Jordan officiating. Interment will follow at Oak Bowery Cemetery.

Pallbearers are Bob Fason, Josh Fortner, Rick Kelley, Rodney Martin, Roger Martin, and Bradley Woods.

Honorary pallbearers are Spanky Woods and Kendall Edgmond.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Friendship Baptist Church Children's Ministry- a cause close to Irma's heart.

Irma's gentle spirit, strong faith, and generous heart leave behind a legacy of love and service that will continue to inspire all who knew her.
