Philip Harrison

December 17, 2001 — April 7, 2021

Philip Theodore Harrison died April 7, 2021, at the age of 19. He was born December 17, 2001, to Kenneth and Melissa Harrison in Bethesda Maryland. He grew up in Hayden Idaho and Leaf River Illinois before moving to St. Mary’s Kansas in 2014 to attend the boarding school at St. Mary’s Academy. He graduated with the class of 2020. Philip was a freshman at Kansas State University and was majoring in Psychology. His one true love was his dog, Lady, that he treated like a queen. Philip was a member of Assumption Chapel. His favorite beer was Guinness, his favorite liquor was Jameson, and he discovered this love in his trip to Ireland in early 2020. His favorite pastimes were smoking brisket, exercising on his mountain bike, and enjoying a good pipe tobacco. His favorite rivalry is captured in the phrase “GO ARMY, BEAT NAVY!”
