HARWICH – Stephen Ford s career in politics took him all the way to the United States Senate. But it was when he ran for and was elected to the Board of Selectmen in 2019 that he returned to the political arena he truly loved.
“He just loved Harwich,” his wife, Patsy, said. “He was glad to help give back when he became a selectman. He was sad he wasn’t going to be able to continue with it.”
Ford, the board s vice chairman, died April 9 after a years-long bout with cancer. He was 68.
Friends, colleagues and family members say Ford, a Harwich native, will be remembered as someone who never shied away from the hard work that often came with town government, as well as being a loving father, husband and grandfather.
