Michael Graham Harrison passed away peacefully on April 16, 2026, leaving behind a lifetime of memories cherished by family and friends.
Michael is lovingly remembered by his twin sister Carolyn (Geoffery) and his sister Juliette (Brian). Michael was a devoted father to Jason (Erin), Debbie (Andre), Vicky (Brian), and Michael (Roxanne). He was a proud grandfather to Donovan, Mathew, Taylor, Josh, and Kayla. Also, a great-grandfather to Damien, Max, Kyran, and Locklan.
Michael, affectionately known as “Pops” and “Papasan,” lived an extraordinary life. His years in the military took him across the globe, where he experienced many cultures and created lasting memories. Closer to home, he found joy in simple pleasures, especially walking dogs with his best friend Jill and spending time with the local dog walking club.
He was a loving brother, father, and the greatest stepdad. His kindness, warmth, and overall presence left a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.
Michael will be greatly missed and will always hold a special place in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
