Gorham- Phyllis Tapley Harmon, 100, passed away in Scarborough on Thursday, May 4, 2017. The daughter of Frank and Harriet (Townsend) Tapley, she was born at home in Gorham on October 10, 1916. She lived in Gorham her entire life. As a child, she attended Elmwood school which is now the Lion's Club building on South St. She graduated from Gorham High School in 1934. One of her fondest memories was delivering hay into Portland by horse and wagon with her older brother Howard. In 1940, Phyllis married Ralph Harmon, and they settled on Mitchell Hill Rd in South Gorham to raise their children. She lived in the same house until just days before her death. In the 1950's Phyllis and Ralph purchased a camp on Harmon's Beach at Sebago Lake, where she enjoyed many summers with her family. In an article published by the Gorham Times for her 100th birthday Phyllis was quoted as saying "I've always lived here. I'm happy right here in Gorham. I don't care to live anywhere else. I just love Gorham". Phyllis was predeceased by her husband Ralph, and her siblings. She is survived by her son David Harmon and his wife Rosamond, of Rockwood, her daughter Karen Dyer and her husband Ronald of Gorham, her grandchildren, Darcy and James Dyer, Garrett and Ross Harmon, and Wanda Maddox Thompson. There will be a private family graveside service at a later date. Arrangements are under the care of Dolby Funeral Chapel, Gorham.
