It is with sorrow that we pass along the news that one of our fellow graduates, Allan Miller, passed away last Friday.
You may have noticed his absence at our recent reunion. Allan had been fighting ALS (better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease), and was unable to attend.
We're going to take $100 from the money we raised at the reunion and donate it in Allan's name to the ALS Center at St. Peter's Hospital.
Below is the text of the obituary appearing in today's Times Union:
