Harriet Dozier

In Loving Memory of Harriet Dozier It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Harriet Dozier, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and cherished friend to many. Harriet peacefully entered eternal rest at her home on February 28, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family. She was born on November 6, 1950, in Manning, South Carolina, to Hellen and John Dozier. Harriet was a beacon of grace and warmth, known for her radiant smile that could light up any room. Her ability to make everyone feel welcome and valued was a testament to her kind and compassionate nature. A devoted wife to John Dozier, they celebrated over 40 years of marriage, a union filled with love and mutual respect. Together, they raised two wonderful children, Shantell and Ryan, and built a life steeped in joy and togetherness. She was predeceased by her beloved daughter, Shantell Dozier, whose memory she carried in her heart. Harriet is survived by her loving husband, John, her son Ryan Dozier, two grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren. Her family was her pride and joy, and her legacy of love will continue to flourish through them. Harriet was a proud graduate of Manning High School, class of 1965, and later earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Journalism in 1998. While her professional life included time as a cashier at Walmart, her most cherished role was that of a homemaker. Harriet devoted herself to nurturing her family, filling their home with warmth, delicious meals, and boundless love. A devout and active member of the First Baptist Church in Manning, Harriet's faith was central to her life. She enjoyed more than 30 years of fellowship and worship, singing joyfully with the choir and serving her community with a generous heart. Harriet had many passions, including a love for cooking and trying new culinary delights. Her fondness for blue crabs was well known, as was her joy in singing and bringing people together through song and laughter. A service to honor Harriet's life will take place on March 8, 2026, at 11:30 AM at the First Baptist Church, located at 49 W Boyce St, Manning, SC 29102. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the First Baptist Church-Manning, in memory of Harriet’s unwavering faith and dedication. The family wishes to express their heartfelt gratitude to all who have shown their support during this difficult time. They kindly ask for privacy as they continue to mourn the loss of their beloved Harriet. Though she is no longer with us, Harriet's spirit will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew her. Her life was a testament to the power of love and the beauty of a life well-lived. May she rest in eternal peace.
