This is written to the residents of Linn County and the family of Dr. Percy Harris:
I am a retired ER nurse and had the privilege to work with this wonderful man. He treated both his patients and victims of medical examiner cases with respect and dignity. I never saw him in a bad mood. He was always wonderful to work with, even in the middle of the night. He was always dressed in a suit and tie with a smile on his face.
I remember when his 12th child was born, the announcement was an egg carton with everyone's name on an egg.
May he rest in God's arms. He shall be missed.
