He is survived by his parents, Edward and Josephine Harrington; his son James; daughter Keara and grandson Jayden; sister Rosemarie Harrington-May and her husband Wayne; brothers Mark and Richard; and four nieces.

On Saturday, Feb. 23 the 5 p.m. Mass at Holy Cross Parish, 30 Ward Ave., Rumson, will be said in his honor.
