Clair E. Harris, 89, Custer, SD, passed away February 23, 2019. Clair grew up in
White River, SD. After serving in Korea and marrying his soulmate, Bonita Prokop Harris, he
built a career with the USDA, traveling South Dakota, working with farmers and ranchers.
Bonita and Clair eventually settled in Custer, SD on a small ranch where he enjoyed spoiling
their cows and riding his ATV around the ranch. Clair was a loving father and grandfather, a
dapper dresser, a friend to all he met and described as a true gentleman. He enjoyed playing
horseshoes, whistling, and loved spending winters in Arizona after retiring.

Grateful for having shared his life are his wife, Bonita; daughters, Sheri (Ray) Webster of Custer,
SD; Jane (Lester) Wise of Monroe, WI; six grandchildren and numerous great grandchildren.

A Celebration of Clair's life will be held at a later date.
