He became the love of her life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Harriet earned her Master&#8217;s Degree from Baptist Christian University. She and her sister, Phyllis, started an amazing business together in 1992 called <em>On Wings of Eagles Christian Tours<\/em>. They loved helping people not only know Jesus, but also escorting them to Israel and Jordan to share and teach the history of Christianity. Everywhere Harriet went, she would ask, &#8220;Do you know Jesus?&#8221; She was even known to leave people a tiny Jesus doll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Harriet was preceded in death by her parents, Carl Frederick and May (Hain) Gall; her loving husband, Ken Oehlkers; her brother, Jack Gall; and her granddaughter, Lauren Joyce Meis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those left to cherish her memory are her daughters: Star Malouff and her husband, Bob, of Cane Hill, Missouri; Audrey Imfeld and her husband, Doug, of Roat\u00e1n, Honduras; and Michelle Murphy of Floral City; her son, Keith Frazier of Floral City; her sisters, Phyllis Miller of Brooksville and Carol Eickelberg of Phoenix, Arizona; her sister-in-law, Fran Gall of Fort Mill, South Carolina; 13 grandchildren; and 10 great-grandchildren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A celebration of Harriet&#8217;s life will be held on Monday, July 20, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at First Lutheran Church, 1900 FL-44, Inverness, Florida. Family and friends are invited to attend as they celebrate a life well lived and a faith that she joyfully shared with everyone she met.&nbsp; In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial contributions be made in Harriet&#8217;s memory.
