He was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, friend, coach, and so much more; he will be dearly missed. His charismatic and jovial personality left an impression on everyone he met. He was a believer of Jesus, and his faith in the Lord was evident in every aspect of his life. He had a zest for life and adventure, and enjoyed boating, camping, fishing, golfing, watching college football, sightseeing, and exploring new places. He was a connector of people, and loved spending time with friends and family.
He is survived by his wife, Patricia Harmsen; five children Trisha and Jay (Ava) Seletsky, Holly and Mark (Brycen and Jacie) Dalman, Danielle and Chad (Giovanni and Gianni) Sampo, Joe Harmsen, and Brad and Aubree (Daisy, Violet, and Ruby) Harmsen; brothers Dave and Darcy Harmsen, Paul and Lynne Harmsen, and Gary and Tammy Harmsen; in-laws Mike and Judy Hefferan, Brian and Lynn Hefferan, Jane and Dean Bissell, Paul and Lori Hefferan, Karen and Chris Goebel, Kathy and Pedro Alcocer, and Jenny and Heath Hefferan; as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
Celebration of life service will be held 11 a.m. Thursday, September 28, 2023, at Cook Memorial Chapel, 4235 Prairie St. SW, Grandville, with visitation one hour prior from 10-11 a.m.
