For almost 100 years, the slogan “Harris’ Has It” set a standard for quality merchandise, selection, and personal service. Starting in 1905 with only 25 feet of frontage at its original San Bernardino store, this partnership of three immigrant brothers grew into a corporation of nine stores, with the flagship store alone worth over $1 million. The Harris Company was the first in the region to enhance the shopping experience with the introduction of elevators, electric signs, and escalators. Although the store closed in 1999, the Harris Company is remembered throughout the Inland Empire as a shopping experience that was more than just business, it was “looking after people.”

The size of a community does not equal the measure of the hearts of those who live there. In times of crisis, ordinary sons and daughters of the greater Stanwood area responded with extraordinary commitment. Neither embracing the dangers of service nor shirking from them, they, often with quiet grace, accepted their moment of purpose even to the point of death. Families hold the memories of those soldiers who paid the ultimate sacrifice during conflict-their bodies lying in sacred soil stretching from the fields of France to the volcanic islands of the South Pacific, the jungles of Asia or beneath the great blue waters of the world's oceans. The idea for this book grew with the desire to pay homage to the lost and loved of the Stanwood Camano area.
