Donnie loved his family and family get-togethers. The annual Harrison family reunion at Micke Grove park was special to him. It started 51 years ago and he never missed a year.

He is survived by his wife Yvonne, daughter Pam (Frank), son Gregg (Laura), stepchildren Victor (Sheryl) and Pam, and step granddaughter Sara. He is also survived by his nephews Mike (Gina), Perry (Casie) and nieces Cathy (Bruce), Lisa (Robert), and Valorie (Paul). He is predeceased by his mother Myrtle, father Hurstel, brother Harry, sister Addie and niece Shelley.
A celebration of his life will be held on June 10, 2022 from 11-3 at the Pittsburg Elks, 200 Marina Blvd, Pittsburg, CA. Donations in his name can be made to the Pittsburg Elks as he was a member there.
