As mentioned above, the legendary athlete was married to his wife, Dana Dokmanovich.
Although the pair preferred to keep their marriage details to themselves, we can be assured that they were together for a few decades.
They were married until the former professional footballer’s death. Franco Harris’ son informed the Associated Press today that he died overnight.
The reason for his death has not been disclosed. He seems to have passed away surrounded by his beloved family. We wish the Harris family strength to cope with the tragic loss.
Days before the Steelers were set to retire his No. 32 jersey and commemorate the “Immaculate Reception’s” 50th anniversary at Pittsburgh’s Pittsburgh Stadium, Harris passed away.
At a press conference on Tuesday, Steelers coach Mike Tomlin discussed Harris’ miraculous catch.
