Lee and Elaine Harrington

I remember with joy the "Lee P" I followed through high school a class behind him: he was one of the biggest of our sports heros. I saw him outside of school from time to time, as I was a friend of his sister, Glenda, and his mom and dad, who all participated in our Camp Fire group's activities. Our group loved it when Lee P was around: I'm pleased to say most of us were besotted with him and that beautiful smile fixed on his handsome face.
The passing of Lee and Elaine profoundly...

Ute & I have been out of town. What a shock. Two of the world's great people.
Let's not lose contact. I know Elaine's cousins want to keep in touch.

Coach Harrington was the first person I met when I enrolled at Richfield HS. Later he was my principal at Midway HS and I had Mrs. Harrington for English. What a terrible loss for Leah, Ty and their families. I have nothing but great memories for two people who cared so much for young people and their future success. You are missed. May God be with you during this difficult time.

Dearest Ty, Leah & families,

I can't express the sadness and disbelief I felt when learning of your parent's passing. They both were such wonderful individuals and educators. The influence they had on so many young lives was tremendous. I recall a few times when I had done something wrong in school, and knowing I had disappointed your parents was almost the equivalent to disappointing my own parents.

Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you at this...

My father was in the Fire Deptment with your grandfather and my mother was very good friends with your grandmother. I remember when your father was born. I was very pleased to have him in the office when two of my children were students in Midway. I did not know your mother, but know she must have been a wonderful person to have married your dad. May God bless you and help you thru this hard time

Leah & Ty,

I am sorry to hear about your parents, they had a great influence on so many. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families during this difficult time. They will be missed by all.

COACH HARRINGTON WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART. HE IS A GREAT MAN. I WAS AT RICHFIELD HIGHSCHOOL WHILE HE WAS THERE AND MY FOUR CHILDREN HAD HIM AS A PRINCIPLE AT MIDWAY. HE HAD THE SAME VALUES DURING BOTH TENURES AND I STILL ADMIRE HIM FOR THAT. I WORKED FOR BAYLOR FOR FOUR YEARS AND BOTH YOUR PARNETS WHERE SO FUN TO BE AROUND, THEY WILL LIVE IN MY HEART FOREVER, THEY ARE WHAT MAKES EVERYONE PROUD TO SAY THEY ARE MY FRIENDS.

Leah, your mom was so patient with the Senior Girls last period English class, 1976. We all had such a good year together. She lead us through the dreaded Research Paper and tolerated our gaggle with goodness and spirit. I'll always remember her excellence in the classroom AND the way she'd roll her eyes at us before she flashed us her big smile. We loved her dearly!

Leah Mike Boomer and Weston,
We are truly sorry for your tragic loss. Nothing prepares us for the loss of our loved ones. Rejoice in your memories. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Doug, Maria and Jordan Feist
