So sorry to hear about Stretch's passing. As a former resident of McArthur St., I hold many wonderful memories of both he and Shorty. Our families spent a lot of time together during the many years we lived across from each other. We were all family on that street and I will miss him dearly. On behalf of the Collins family, I send my sincere condolences to the family on his passing.

I'm so sorry to read about Al's passing. I'm honored to have been a small part of his life. My sympathies to all the members of his family.

Chris and family. So very sorry to hear of your dad´s passing.. Prayers to you in this very difficult time.

When Marjorie O'Donnell Hickey passed last January, I wondered if my mother was the last of PHS 1941. Mr Hopper's obituary showed she was not; I went to their yearbook to look back. She was not known to be a socialite, and it was heartwarming to see his signature beside his photo and ambitions. Their class had great reunions until the living members so reduced; they were all Pittsfield's last graduates before our country entered WW2. Sympathy to the Hopper family for your loss.

We are so sorry to hear of Al's passing. Our sincere condolences to the Harris, Squires and Myers families. Al was a great guy; one of a kind! Rest in peace.
