QUEENSBURY --- Dorothy G. "Dot" Harrington, 80, passed away after a brief battle with pericardial mesothelioma on Sunday, May 15, 2022, with loved ones by her side.

Born June 16, 1941, in Glens Falls, NY, she was the daughter of the late Leon and Blanche (Wilcox) Richardson.

Dot was a graduate of Queensbury High School. She later worked at her family's grocery store (Richardson's) along with being a telephone operator for New York Bell. After the family store closed, she worked for Warren County as a clerk in the purchasing department, until she retired in 2004.

She married David Harrington of Queensbury in 1960. They had been together since the 9 ^th grade. After retirement, she and Dave became snowbirds and spent their winters in Webster, FL with numerous friends.

Dot enjoyed her family more than anything. They all spent time together camping, biking, kayaking. She loved to read and was an avid bird watcher. Nothing made Dot happier then having family celebrations at their home on the river. Dot also loved to travel near and far.

She was a lifetime member of Weight Watchers (over 25 years) and was an avid volunteer for the Adirondack Runners for over 20 years.

In addition to her parents, Dot was predeceased by her brother Dave and his wife Rose Richardson.
