\"\"<\/a>Sherwin Harris<\/strong>, father of Liane Harris, who died on 18 November 1978, described himself as “co-founder of the Concerned Relatives Group [who] had a unique perspective as a non(ever)member parent dealing with the Temple and as an eyewitness to the events as they transpired in Guyana and the people and other groups involved.” He subsequently consulted with other parents whose children “were similarly involved with cults.”<\/p>\n

In addition to the two stories below, Sherwin wrote a contemplation<\/a> on a list entitled People Critical of Guyana<\/a>, which Peoples Temple prepared in 1978, likely during the spring during the period of the Concerned Relatives\u2019 strongest activity and following the May 1978 defection of Debbie Layton Blakey.<\/p>\n

Sherwin died on January 11, 2016.<\/p>\n
