Predeceased by first husband Kenneth Munro (2002) and second partner Dr. Arthur “Frank” Lewis (2005). Survived by her daughter Gail.

Interment to be held for friends and family at a later date. As an expression of sympathy and in lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Harriet to Port Nelson United Church in Burlington would be sincerely appreciated by the family.
