Obituary
Everett William Harris, 92, of Silver Spring, MD went home to be with the Lord on Friday, October 16, 2020. He was born in Raleigh, NC on May 29, 1928, the second oldest of four children. He graduated from Eastern High School in Washington, D.C. and served in the Army during the Korean War. Later, Bill was a cartographer who worked for the Army Map Service where he met Lorraine Gluck, whom he married on June 23, 1956. They raised three children, celebrated seven grandchildren, and one great grandchild. Bill retired from the Defense Mapping Agency and then went on to work for Montgomery County Storm Water Mgmt. Bill’s faith was very important to him as he grew up attending Calvary Baptist Church in Washington, D.C. and continued going there well into his 70’s.
No service or visitation is planned at this time. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to an organization he was so passionate about, the Maryland Youth Pipe Band, at mypipeband.org.
