Jerry Wayne Harville

Brother Jerry Wayne Harville was born on October 22, 1954, to the late Eugene and Clara Harville of Bessemer, Alabama.

Brother Harville was a faithful brother in the Lord at Progressive Church of our Lord Jesus Christ. Nobody was a stranger to him—he went from pew to pew all around the church greeting everyone with a hug. Brother Harville was baptized on October 30, 1993, and received the gift of the Holy Ghost on November 2, 1993, according to Acts 2:38. He completed the Apostolic Beginners Course and was a faithful member of the Brotherhood Department. Jerry transitioned from this earthly life on Thursday, October 26, 2023, in Wetumpka, Alabama.

Brother Jerry served in the U. S. Army from 1974-1983. Once he was honorably discharged, he became a manager over several dining facilities throughout Hanau, Germany. Upon returning stateside, he worked for the Broad River’s Correctional Center and then for the United States Postal Service (USPS) as a Rural Carrier for 12 years until he was medically retired.

Brother Harville was an exuberant, humble man who was extremely grateful for his family. He was a popular man with an endearing personality and an effortless smile.

Brother Jerry leaves to cherish his precious memories: his wife of 46 years, Annette L. Harville; two sons, Chauncey Harville of Bessemer, MI, and Cedric (Nikki) Harville of Cincinnati, OH; two daughters, Deniecia Sumpter of Birmingham, AL, and Katina Harville (Chrishon) Scott of Montgomery, AL; one sister, Janice Faye Nelson-Wells of Buffalo, NY; three sisters-in-law, Jeanette Latham of Maplesville, AL, Diann Latham of Yorktown, VA, and Patricia (James) Jackson of Clinton, MD; two brothers-in- law, Milford Latham, Jr., and Melvin Morton of Maplesville, AL; nine grandchildren, Aaliyah, Danielle, Treashure, Angelo, Elise, Aysia, Chrishon Jr., Noah, and Sophia; and a host of nephews, nieces, other relatives, and friends.
