HARRIS 50th

Philip and Arlene Harris of Fairfield, Mont., celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. 

Philip Richard Harris and Arlene Joyce Ausmus were married in Burns, Ore., on Sept. 6, 1964. They settled on the Harris family ranch west of Fairfield and lived out these happy years raising sheep, cattle, kids and a bountiful garden. Their time on the ranch was interrupted only for Philip’s service in the Army from 1966 to 1968, when they lived in Texas and then Munich, Germany, for one year.

Their greatest joys have included watching their boys and grandchildren grow close to the Lord, as well as birding and gardening together. 

Their family includes Derik Harris of Auburn, Wash.; Darin and Shelly (Beardsley) Harris of Kalispell, Mont.; Dallas and Melisa (Schimke) Harris of Fairfield, Mont.; Denver and Liz (Morrison) Harris of Fairfield; and 6 grandchildren.
