James J. Harnett, Family & Children’s Association CEO, Dies at 63
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved CEO Jim Harnett. Mr. Harnett passed away suddenly on Saturday, January 23, 2010. Known as the ultimate caregiver, Mr. Harnett shepherded the care of thousands of Long Islanders in his role as President/CEO of Family & Children’s Association. Mr. Harnett’s tireless efforts on behalf of Long Islanders in crisis helped lead the agency to care for over 40,000 individuals last year. His enthusiasm for helping others was unmatched and his leadership will be greatly missed by all who worked alongside him.
Mr. Harnett’s devotion to his work was only surpassed by his commitment to his family. He was a loving husband and proud father. He is survived by his wife Fran, and their two children, Sarah and James, his mother, Eleanor, his sister Ellen, brother-in-law Bruce, brothers Richard and Robert, sister-in-law Smokey, and sister Joan. At the family’s request, memorial donations in Jim’s honor may be made to Family and Children’s Association, 100 E. Old Country Road, Mineola, NY 11501 (516-746-0350) www.familyandchildrens.org/donate.
