Kenneth Wayne Harris, III

January 29, 2004 — March 20, 2025

Little Rock

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Kenneth Wayne Harris III, who left us on March 20, 2025 at the age of 21. Kenneth or "K3" or "Pootie", as he was affectionately known, was a beloved son, brother, father, nephew, grandson and friend, whose kind heart, infectious laughter, and zest for life will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Born on January 29th, 2004, in Little Rock, AR, Kenneth lived a life full of promise, passion, and joy. Throughout his short time on earth, he brought light and happiness to everyone he encountered. K3 had an enthusiasm for life and was always ready to make you laugh. He loved spending time with his family, and all the kids adored him, eagerly welcoming his playful and loving demeanor. He was the type of person you meet and never forget.

K3 had a deep love for sports, with football being his favorite. Before even becoming a teenager, he was already on the football field, playing alongside his uncle Miles. He also enjoyed playing basketball and baseball during his time living with his aunt in Jersey City for a few years. It was in Jersey where he got his first job, attended his first live football game, took his first plane ride, rode his first train and experienced many more unforgettable moments. He was admired by many and made a lasting impact on everyone he met far and near.

K3 leaves behind his loving parents, Tasha Harris and Kenneth Harris; his daughter, Octavia; his sisters, Keniah Harris and Shasta Smith; and his brother, Shawn Green Jr. He is also survived by his grandmothers, Marilyn Hubbard and Donna Jordan; his grandfather, Kenneth Wayne Harris Sr.; his great-grandmothers, Leona LenaMae Smith and Ollie Mae Harris; his best friend, Ira Sheraul Smith (Bama); extended family, the Bulko’s, as well as numerous uncles, aunts, and a community of friends and loved ones who will cherish his memory.
