Rev. Warren H. Harris, 86, of East Moline, Illinois, formerly of Brookville, Pennsylvania, died Monday, May 10, 2021, at Genesis Medical Center.

Memorials may be made to the American Heart Association.

Warren Henry Harris was born July 2, 1934, in Minetola, New Jersey, the son of Norman and Martha (Green) Harris. He married Anne Evelyn Richmond on August 22, 1959, in Washington, Pennsylvania.

Warren attended Kings College and Bob Jones University, and was ordained at Newfield Baptist Church, (Newfield, NJ) to become a missionary and church planter in rural America. He and his wife spent their careers serving in small churches across America. His final assignment was to pastor Kirkman Independent Baptist Church for over 24 years.

He was a lover of books and studying the Word of God. Warren liked to spend his time in prayer and contemplation. His favorite hobby was ventriloquism and he enjoyed entertaining others with his witty skits and exchanges between him and his dummy, Danny Ireland.

In his later years, Warren took up singing in a Barbershop Chorus, and loved every minute! Warren was happiest watching a good Western, or walking in nature with his family.

Warren is survived by his wife of over 61 years, Evelyn; three children, Charlene Ruiz, Lynn (Sebastian) Polhill, and Glenn (Sarah) Harris; six grandchildren; his twin brother, Norman Harris, sister, Georgianna Corona; and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; and his son, Warren H. Harris, Jr.
