I had the privilege to work with Mark for a short but memorable time for a airport project in Iceland. I have been away from work since mid september 2021 and only knew of Mark's passing yesterday.

I remember in the extreme workload and chaos regarding the design process Mark always managed to set things right and guide the project team in the right direction with his immense experience, patience and relaxed but thorough management skills. I am thankful for the time me and Mark worked together.

I send the parents my deepest condolences.

I just wanted to remember Mark in few words and send Marks parents my deepest condolences. I'd been working closely with Mark for the past 6 months on design projects for Isavia (The national airport and air navigation service provider of Iceland). Mark was a one-of-a-kind, warm and very polite person with a good presence. He was always ready to assist with a smile on his face. He will be missed not just as one of the best consultants in our team but mostly as a kind and genuine person. RIP-Mark Harrington

Dear Mr & Mrs. Harrington, I am so sorry to hear this news. I knew Mark over 10 years ago before he went to Blenheim to learn to fly. I remember the last time he popped in. Mark was always smiling and so kind but also enigmatic like a soul that was here for a reason. He has done amazing things with his life! It's tragic it was cut short and so suddenly at his prime. Much love to you both.

Dear Harrington Family
I did not know Mark but felt I did after reading the ODT obituary. It portrayed a wonderful picture of nice family and proud parents of a fine interesting and caring son. His life was short but full. He will
RIP

Dear Alanna and Tony.

We would like to send our deepest condolences. We got to know Mark when we took Danish classes together in 2015, and remained friends ever since. He was a lovely, friendly guy, who was always wonderful to talk to. He had so many great stories from all his travels, and always made us laugh.

Some of our fondest memories of him come from our many quiz nights, playing pentanque in Copenhagen's parks, and enjoying meals and barbecues together.

We're sorry we found out about his passing after the memorial service took place in Copenhagen. Our thoughts are with you at this time. And we'll cherish our memories of your brilliant son.

Kindest regards
Sam, Andrew, Sita and Ida
