Shaun and Mary Kay,

Just heard of your Dad's passing from my brother, Tom. That generation of family men dedicated to their large families, and our benefit, represents a page in the history books that may not be repeated. We were fortunate to be able to live our lives during that time and benefit from the behavior model shared with us.


I attended North Jr High during the last few years of the 50's when Mr Farley taught there. He was my teacher for classes and homeroom. He was always engaging and interesting, and I thought he was a great teacher. A friend and I would often, after school, stop back to his room to talk with him.

I am so sorry to hear of Toms passing, such a wonderful man and friend! Condolences to Carolyn and the whole family.

I was fortunate to have spent a few years with the Pittsfield School Department as Tom's secretary. It was and will always be remembered as a great working and learning experience with a professional and caring principal, leader, mentor and friend. Any time I met Tom and Carolyn up to and even after retirement, I walked away with a feeling that I had just spent time with some very good people.

My condolences to the Farley family. I have fond memories of him from his time at Hibbard school. Great and kind person that he was, he will not be forgotten.

"I was a student @ Hibbard elementary where Dr. Farley was the Principle. I will never forget the kindness he showed to my younger brother Billy & myself when our Dad passed away. He was a one of a kind special person who went above & beyond. May his family be comforted by loving memories."

My deepest condolences to the Farley family.
