Marion Harris

We gather here today to honor and celebrate the life of Marion Elizabeth Harris, who passed away on Sunday, August 31, 2025. Marion was born on July 14, 1947, in Belize City, Belize, to Calvert Trapp and Norma Hemsley. Marion attended Wesley Primary School in Belize City, where she laid the foundation for her lifelong love of learning. Marion migrated to the United States in the early 70s. She worked as a nursing assistant at Centinela Hospital and dedicated herself as a caregiver. She also attended college, always eager to grow and learn.

Outside of work, Marion had many passions: attending church, reading, cooking, and spending time with her sisters, whom she adored. She loved family gatherings, solving crossword puzzles, going to the casino and creating memories with those closest to her.

Marion gave birth to six children, survived by Marsha Reid, Frank Fuller, Kevin Bennett (aka Reds); preceded in death by her children Collet Fuller, Francia Jenkins, and Henry Harris, three of her sisters Marcella Andrewin, Perl Trapp, and and Delciann Trapp and her father Calvert Trapp Sr. 19 grandchildren; and 24 great-grandchildren. She was also deeply loved by her siblings—Sonia Goff, Josephine McKenzie, Cherrymae Longsworth, Ismae Zelaya, Emolyne Hemsley, Louis Hemsley, Barbara Wilks, Sylvia Trapp, Sandra Watkins-Usher, Ednamae Trapp, Diana Sanchez, Joan Bartagni, brothers- Calvert Jr, Goldburn, Norman, and Floyd Trapp—son-in-law, daughter in laws, and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Her generosity, warmth, and love for her family and friends will be forever remembered. Marion’s spirit will continue to inspire us all, and though she is no longer with us, she will remain in our hearts.

Rest in peace, Marion. You will never be forgotten.
