E. Scott Harrington

In memory of the Man with the Plaid Skis and countless trees witnessing the runs Scott carved with such joy; heres one more

Scott was a wonderful person. He provided wise urban planning counsel and advice to the Village of Shorewood Hills over the last few decades. Nothing rattled him; he patiently helped the Village navigate through some tough and financially challenging issues. He will be missed. Sending peace and light to his family and colleagues at Vandewalle. Dave Benforado, President, Village of Shorewood Hills WI (2017-2023)

Every time I was with Scott, I was met with a warm and welcoming demeanor that was immediately disarming, making it easy to bond over shared interests in indie bands (introduced to me by his son Ben) and Gopher sports. Whenever Ben let me know Scott was joining us to hang for the day, I was excited to be with another Harrington. Scott made the good times even better, and I'm fortunate enough to be one of the many lives blessed to cross paths with him and the entire Harrington family

We are so sad to lose Scott so soon as our relationship was just beginning to prosper. Our daughter Saarah and son-in-law Ben married just last summer. The times we spent were always fun and full of intellectual conversation. Our conversations seem to span the world. In preparation for Saarah and Ben’s wedding we had so much fun and full of laughs putting up the tent and preparing venue. When the Goldies (Ben’s friends) arrived Scott jumped right in and was part of the gang. It was so fun to watch. We miss you Scott and are so grateful we’re able to call you a friend and proud Saarah joined your family.

We had the opportunity to work with Scott and his team on a great project to secure the City of Rifle as the home of the Colorado Center of Excellence for Advanced Technology Aerial Firefighting. He did amazing work and it was an absolute pleasure to work with him. I was saddened to hear the news and my thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.
