Harvey Anthony Ellison
November 17, 1940 - May 30, 2019
Harvey Anthony Ellison of Somerdale, NJ, passed away May 30, 2019 at the age of 78 years. Predeceased by his wife of 36 years, Mary E. Ellison (nee Jackson). Treasured partner of Susan Van Buren. Beloved father of Stephanie Ellison-Lewis, Leisa Ellison (fiancé Munir Alam), Dionne Ellison, Alexis Ellison (fiancé Brian Rodolph), and Ann Harding. Proud grandfather of Andrè Ellison, Kayla Lewis, Noah Ellison, and Thai Harding; and great-grandfather of Joshua Harding, Ismael Harding, and Adrian Harding. Dear uncle of Marcus Ellison, Quita Craft, and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. He was predeceased by his siblings, John (Kalvin) Ellison and Myrtis Byrd. Harvey dedicated his life to being a loving, caring, and all around wonderful father. He always put his family above all else and provided for them in every way. He was an excellent companion, friend, and co-worker. He worked as a facilities manager at Cento in West Deptford for many years, retiring in 2018. He was incredibly kind and generous to a fault. He was treasured by all who knew him. Harvey was a “class act” and will be very deeply missed, especially by “The Crew” from N. Philadelphia, who were like a second family to him. His daughters feel that they have been blessed beyond measure to have had him as a father. Services for Mr. Ellison will be held privately per the wishes of his family.
