Horace was born in Chicago and grew up with his younger sister, who is also named Horace.
Getting an excellent education is critical for being competitive in the world and for having the skills to explore all of their talents, as both parents underlined.
They were urged to attempt new things and to never admit defeat in front of others.
Constance was born and raised in the Cleveland, Ohio, area of the United States. It was her parents who also provided her with the same type of motivation.
She was taught how to use the city's library and museums, and she came to appreciate them as a result of her experience.
Constance is the youngest of seven siblings, all of whom are male. Spending time with her aunt and other family members around a Scrabble board, as well as having passionate discussions about a wide range of issues, made her upbringing more enjoyable.
Horace and Constance are both college graduates, as is their mother. During the stormy years of the late 1960s, Horace was studying for his master's degree and his law degree at the University of Wisconsin in Madison.
He learnt early in life that if you don't stand up for something, you'll be taken in by anyone or anything.
She and her husband both relocated to Washington in the early 1970s and took up positions with the federal government.
Constance worked for the State Department and spent a lot of time travelling throughout the world, particularly in French-speaking countries.
When her business sponsor invited her to a covered-dish party where Horace was sharing highlights of the company, she and Horace became acquainted.
Later, once Horace's first marriage had ended, he and Constance began dating again a few years later. Together, they discovered many common interests and ambitions, shared a lot of laughter, and, most significantly, formed a very fulfilling friendship.
Horace has been able to spend more time with his son, Vincent, as a result of his successful business. There are numerous advantages to not being chained to a traditional 9-to-5 work schedule. One is the ability to cultivate relationships with peace of mind.
It is unlikely that any of this would have occurred if Horace had listened to his supervisor, who urged him to forsake his business in its early stages and concentrate instead on his legal career instead.
Today, Horace and Constance are the owners of a global company, they have complete control over their schedule, and their honeymoon is becoming more enjoyable by the day! - - - - - - - -
It is with sadness that we report the death of Horace Harris, who passed away in the spring of 2008. As a man and as a business leader, Horace set a high standard that continues to be followed by others today, despite his premature demise.
