Came to say the same, I meet him once in his shop, what a great person he was. His wife also has a great amount of bicycle knowledge from what I heard.
And the shop itself closed in 2021 after being open for nearly 70 years. I purchased my Brompton there.
That is a shame, I figured Harris would be the last small shop left.
Unfortunately, I have seen a few family owned shops taken over by a "large" company, namely Trek. Others have just closed. I only know of one or 2 family owned shop left these days.
His wife was a professor at the Northeastern computer science department when I went there. A wonderful teacher.
