Subject: [Texascavers] Scott Harden obituary - 2015 :
>From Kurt Menking :
Scott Harden, and active Caver, Geologist, Biologist, Mountain climber, and a
friend passed away last week. He was a graduate from UT and a very active
caver in the 70-80’s. He spent a few years caving in the Austin area, made
numerous trips to Mexico, then moved back to San Antonio, and was actively
caving there for many years.
He spent many years caring for his ailing parent in the 90’s and up until his
mom died in 2011. His health had been declining over the past few years. He
constantly emailed his friends with humorous, goofy, and insulting emails
numerous times each day, and when those emails stopped, and he wouldn’t answer
his phone several of us were concerned. One of his friends went to his house,
and after he didn’t get a response, he called the police who eventually
discovered Scott dead inside.
I am planning to host a memorial / celebration of his life at my house Saturday
April 18th starting at 6:30pm. Anyone interested please RSVP so we’ll know how
to contact you with more details as we get closer.

Preston, Carol and all,
Thanks for notifying me about departed cavers or, in one case, an epigrapher
who worked in caves.
I really can't do much with that unless you can send me a write-up, document,
link, or image. I spend a lot of time researching dead cavers as it is, and
some day I will give it up and pass it on to someone. So I need help.
Does anyone know when Scott Harden died? I searched many years of AMCS, Texas
Caver, NSS News, and found nothing about his death. I probably received an
email a few years back when it happened, but my email address changed three
times since then, so...
But I know these people mean something to many of us who were born in the last
millenium...
Thank you,
William R. (Bill) Elliott
