Billy Elmore Harrison Jr. of Allen, Texas passed away on January 28, 2021 at the age of 61 from medical issues brought on from a long battle with addiction. He was born on January 23, 1960 to Billy Elmore Harrison, Sr. and Bertha Emma (Buethe) Harrison in Austin, Texas. Although struggling, Billy always wanted to be better and be an advocate for other struggling with addiction, but his depression became too overwhelming. Billy was an amazing massage therapist with healing hands. He had a passion for helping others, especially those in pain. Billy loved his God, and surrendered his will unto him. Some of Billy's best days were on the Motocross track, although he represented many numbers in his racing career, #7 will always hold a special place in our hearts. Billy had many talents which included baseball, swimming, football, gymnastics, roller skating and of course the ability to heal the body through massage therapy. He always had a warm heart full of kindness, especially for his grandchildren, nothing brought a bigger smile to his face.
Billy is survived by his daughters, Emmy Harrison and fiancé, Tyler E. Hall of Plano, Texas and Danielle Moore and husband, Rhys Moore of Seabrook, Texas; his son, Matthew Harrison of Lewisville, Texas; sisters, Barbara Harrison of Plano, Texas and, Janet Miller and husband, Larry Miller of Austin, Texas; and his grandchildren, Tyler R.

A Celebration of Life will be announced soon for Billy, to be held in Austin, Texas, his hometown. May you now be free from the pains of addiction, and enjoy eternal happiness.
