Harcourt Haviland

Harcourt Haviland (Court) passed away peacefully in his sleep on December 31, 2019 in Bradenton, FL.  He was originally from Highland, NY; born in June 1941. Although handicapped, he enjoyed a very sociable life and participated in many community events winning numerous awards and trophies for the Special Olympics.  The Avon Park ARC provided a work opportunity and in his later years, Court eventually became a friendly fixture at Heritage Park Care and Rehabilitation Center in Bradenton.

Preceding him in death were his mother, Rowena (Pratt), father LeGrand and sisters Rosalee (Boissy) and Elizabeth (Zorn). He is survived by many cousins, nephews, nieces and others including brother-in-law, Bob (Betsy’s husband). Interment will be private.  The family has requested that in lieu of flowers, donations in Court’s memory can be made to the local ARC, the Special Olympics or to a charity of your choosing. The family also expresses heartfelt thanks to the staff at Heritage Park Nursing Home and Rehab Center as they made him feel truly special in these past years.
