Not sure what to say?

I first met Everett at a Board Meeting of the Green Mountain Council about five years ago. I was new to the area and was in need of some new friends. With Everett that was easy. Behind the dry New England humor was a very warm and caring man. I am thankful to have know and worked along side Everett since then, and only wish that it could have gone on for much longer.

I was blessed to have had the opportunity to work with Everett for a number of years. His hard work, dedication and calm assurance of what could be done will be missed. My prayers are for his family at this difficult time.

Everett Harris is one of the finest people we will ever have had the opportunity to know. He lived a life of honor and integrity. He loved his students, his colleagues and friends, but most all, he loved his family. He had a great sense of humor, which enriched the lives of all who knew him. He was a proud man. But not in a braggadocio way. Quietly, confidently, he grew to become a giant in his profession. He never lost the sense humulity of a man who knew what it meant to earn a living...

My condolences and prayers go to Everett, and all members of his family. He was a quiet, steady influence on the Green Mountain Council Board for many years, he never missed a detail, always a great Scout in his contributions to our efforts. He certainly exemplified the points of the Scout Law in his life, and his dealings with all of us. Thanks Everett, for all that you have given to us! And Peace to you, and all of the family, as we remember, and celebrate your time with us.

Condolences to the family of Everett. His energy will be missed by the Green Mountain Council-BSA. Although I did not know him well, I enjoyed our "quick" conversations at GMC E-Board meetings. I am honored to have known him.

I'll miss Everett. He was a good man.

A man who served the scouts as long as Everett did is worthy of honor and respect. Although I did'nt know Everett well, he is part of a long line of Vermonters who gracefully gave what they could to the kids of Vermont. God bless, Everett.

He will be sorely missed. The enormous contributions he made to the youth of our communities is an icon that will stand for generations to come.

My condolences to the family of Everett Harris. He was a generous man. As a Scouter, I appreciate his generosity.
