Obituary for Harry Bacon

Harry  Bacon
Harry Dave Bacon, 81, of Ellensburg and former Quincy resident passed away peacefully at his home on February 11, 2017. He was born November 22, 1935 to Wilfred and Mary (Renn) Bacon in Bottineau, North Dakota.

After visiting family in Poulsbo, he decided to stay and make Poulsbo his home. Shortly after arriving he joined the Carpenters Union apprenticeship program and began working in construction. He met his sweetheart Sharon McGinty in 1953 and the couple wed in 1956. They remained in Poulsbo where he continue to work in the construction industry.

In 1973 they purchased a farm in Quincy, Washington which transformed into Twin Firs Sod Farm making him the original “Mr. Sod”. When Harry was not working his time was spent raising and enjoying his family spending as much time as possible at the family cabin in the Colockum hills.

He enjoyed wildlife, snowmobiling, the outdoors, and traveling. He enjoyed being a member of and supporting Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation.

He is survived by his wife of 61 years Sharon, son Mark of Goldbar, Kent (Kim) of Quincy, and Bill of New Mexico. He leaves behind seven grandchildren, seven great grandchildren, and nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents, infant son Dave, and son Daryl.

It was often said that Harry did not know a stranger and he will be missed by many.
