CEDRICK “CJ” MICHAEL HARRIS, JR.
On April 4, 2021, at the tender age of 14, CJ went home to be with the Lord following a tragic accident. CJ was born June 11, 2006, in Miami, Florida to proud parents Cedrick Harris, Sr. and Marie Ferdinand Harris.
CJ was a bright, 8th grade student at Ashdown Jr. High School in Ashdown, Arkansas. He was not your average 14 year old. CJ was a loving young man, exceptionally talented with a heart of gold. He was extremely kind- hearted and left a lasting impression on everyone he met!
