Harry M. Ellison

Harry M. Ellison, 89, of Union City passed away Tuesday, Aug. 3, 2021, at The Waters of Union City.
Funeral service will be conducted 11 a.m. Friday at White-Ranson Funeral Home, with Mike and Matthew Cooper officiating. A private graveside will follow in East View Cemetery.
He was born Sept. 25, 1931, to the late Jim and Lucy Ellison. He married Rachel (Abernathy) Ellison. She survives.
He was known for his outstanding playing days on the basketball court when he was younger. He graduated as salutatorian from Rives High School before going to the University of Tennessee at Martin. He worked as the manager of Variety Square Plaza and Storage for many years.
He loved to get outside and enjoyed golfing as much as he could, and also working hard to make his yard resemble the fairways of a golf course — perfect and pristine.
In addition to his wife, he is survived by his grandson, Hunter Ellison; two great-granddaughters; and his nephew, Mike Cooper.
He was preceded in death by his son, Brent Ellison; and sister, Joy Cooper.
