Pruitt Funeral Home is pleased to announce that Levy “Lee” Moore has joined us in the role of CEO and Olivia Harris has been promoted to Managing Funeral Director. Together they will streamline day-to-day operations, while helping guide the long-term vision of ensuring all families receive compassionate care and service.

A lifelong resident of Franklin County, Lee brings a deep commitment to the community and a passion for serving others. His wife, Misty, is a Media Specialist with South Franklin Elementary and they are proud parents of three children; Rylee, Macy, and Eli. They are members of Franklin Springs Pentecostal Holiness Church.

For the past 18 years, Lee has owned and operated Moore Vault Company, working alongside Pruitt Funeral Home since its beginning and serving numerous funeral homes throughout Northeast Georgia. His experience and dedication to the funeral profession have allowed him a unique understanding of the care and compassion families need during difficult times.

Olivia is married to Kevin Harris, owner and operator of Harris Timber Company, and together they have two children; Posie and Grady. Outside of work, they are actively involved at Royston Baptist Church, where they serve on several teams and committees. Olivia and Kevin also coach their kids in Franklin County youth sports, including soccer, basketball, baseball, and softball.

Olivia said, “I've been here at Pruitt Funeral Home for 14 years, this isn't just a job for me—it's part of my testimony and a way for me to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Serving others brings me joy. My faith comes first, my family second, and honoring the lives of those who mean the most to us comes next. By the end of our time together, these families become an extension of my own that I care for so deeply."

Our commitment remains unchanged as we continue to provide every family with the highest level of service, dignity, and respect. We look forward to serving for generations to come.
