Here are three Princess Theatre blog posts I did with, and concerning, James "Dub" Harmon, who was a former manager of both the Princess Theatre and the Mid-town Drive-In. He did both jobs while also running a successful furniture business in downtown Harriman.
He passed suddenly Wednesday at his home. His family will receive friends at Riverside Baptist Church on Sunday, 2-5PM.
Dub was full of stories, and with him went an archive of history about our community and, in particular, the Princess and Mid-Town Drive-In theaters. I tried to capture some of that great wealth of knowledge, but I'm afraid much, much, more went with him.

Dub was a great Christian man and never missed an opportunity to prove his love for his family and fellow man. He was a "very" active member of his church, and they have a big hole to fill.
He will be sorely missed by a multitude of people in the Roane and Morgan County area.
He was a "daddy" to me, and a "Papaw" to my son and granddaughters and we loved him greatly.
