AV Harrison

July 16, 1932 – July 6, 2022

Obituary – AV Harrison, loving husband, father and grandfather, died July 6, 2022. He was preceded by his first wife, Elizabeth who passed May of 2014. He leaves behind Jacqulynne Harrison, his wife since October of 2015. In addition, his two children, Albert William Harrison of Fort Walton Beach, FL and Dena Hulec of Deland, FL as well as three grandsons, James, Zac and Nic.

AV joined the US Naval Air in Miami in 1949. He then became a Delta pilot and worked for Delta until 1992. Since his retirement he has enjoyed many forms of travel for example, traveling across country in his Blue Bird coach, motorcycling, antique vehicles and flying his own private plane. He was also an active member of the Quite Birdman #36375, Masons Grand Lodge of Florida, Mahi Shriners, and Moose Lodge of Royal Palm.

Since his marriage to Jacqulynne in 2015, he was no longer able to travel. They took this time to concentrate on making their home his sanctuary. They created a clearing in the back yard which became a sanctuary for birds. Added a pool where they entertained friends and family. Jacqulynne threw him several birthday parties in which many fellow friends and pilots attended. They were fortunate to have a loving, caring relationship in his later years.

AV expressed many times he did not want a funeral or celebration of life.  We are honoring this request in providing a short snippet of his life. We will always miss his quick-witted jokes, comments and his devilish smile that clued us he was up to something.  God Bless the passing of my Beloved Husband.
