"A good man died today, he held away the night"
Dennis Owen Harrison left us on April 18, 2022, leaving his wife Nancy Ann Chiodo of 65 years, his beloved children,
Denny was 87 years old and attended St. Benedict College in Acheson, Kansas, the Kansas City Art Institute, Drake University and was an Army veteran.
He was a craftsman, an artist and a proud Des Moines firefighter for 29 years.
Above all Dennis Owen Harrison was an honest, hardworking, gentle man. He loved his home and cabin in Clear Lake. Though he traveled with his Nancy and made friends in much of the world, his heart belonged to his birthplace, where the air was rarer - Falls City, Nebraska.
He was the son of Owen and Verna Strecker Harrison, brother to David Raymond, sister Jacklyn and deceased sister Barbara.
