From John Morse on February 13th, 2023
George was a very close friend whom I met at AHS after he transferred his senior year from Lawrence Academy. We kept in touch over the years even after he moved to Texas in the 70's. I will always miss the fun trips to the Gloucester beaches in his Corvettes and the fun times we had in Boston in the late 60's. My condolences go out to George's family. You will be missed. RIP my friend.

John was a long-haul trucker for many years before he retired and a proud member of the Teamsters Local 25 in Charlestown. John enjoyed traveling the country, meeting new people, and finding new places to eat. He was a “food enthusiast” who always knew the best restaurants and diners but some of his favorite were the Maine Diner, the Old Salt and the Pushcart.
In his spare time, John liked to work on cars, watch his reality t.v. programs, caught up on current events on Fox News and headed out every morning to Dunkin Donuts for his cup of coffee, butternut donut and to socialize with his friends.
John will be fondly remembered for his love of family and friends; he enjoyed teaching others everything he knew about driving, he gave great directions, and of course tell others about good restaurants that he found throughout the years. John was always out and about in the community and he would go out of his way to do anything for anyone. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.
John was the beloved husband of 51 years to Madeline M. (Merrill) Murphy, devoted father of Gail O’Shea & husband William of Wilmington, John Murphy & wife Lynne of Tewksbury and Stacie Murphy of Wilmington. Loving “Grampy” of Molly, Bridget, J.

Thank you for your kind words honoring my mother-in-law, Rita. She was truly a remarkable lady and is missed tremendously. (Photo taken a month before she passed)
From April Okerholm on December 30th, 2017
DECEMBER 26
This beautiful soul was given her wings today. We wanted to let you all know that at around 3:20 this morning, Rita was called to her Heavenly home. She is cured, she is healthy again and my greatest hope is that upon her arrival into Heaven, Richard was there waiting for her asking for this dance. She worked fervently here on earth positively impacting countless lives of children, friends and family. I often referred to her as the "Queen of the Silver Lining" as she found joy and promise and beauty in every single thing. I am a better person for knowing her and I sought great joy in surprising her with things that meant much to her and moments that would make her smile. It was euphoric for me to make an already happy person happier and she made it easy.
This past year, I have been incredibly honored to be with her, to help her, to ease her, to talk to her and learn from her. I reminded her often how amazing of a person she was, how loved she was and how much I admired her for everything she exemplified.
She is and will always be an amazing mother to Heidi and Erik, grandmother to Christian, Sydney, Emily, Adaline and Melanie, mother-in-law to myself and Manny, Aunt, teacher, wife, sister, daughter and friend. As her sister Ginny said, "You only die when people forget about you." Her work on earth is complete, but her legacy will last forever. We love you, Rita.
Daughter in law April Okerholm
From George Robinson on December 30th, 2017
It's with GREAT sorrow that I heard of the passing of Rita. We were classmates since kindergarten at Brackett school. I walked by her house nearly everyday, and sometimes she would join me in our trek up the lower hill at Robin's Farm to make it to class on time. I loved her beautiful red hair. She is standing beside me (to my left) in this Brackett School 6th grade class photo, (click on the photo, at left, to enlarge it) and if the photo were in color, you could admire her beautiful red hair, too.
From Lois Drukker on December 30th, 2017

Gone From My Sight
I am standing upon the seashore.
A ship at my side spreads her white sails
to the morning breeze
and starts for the blue ocean.
She is an object of beauty and strength.
I stand and watch her untill at length
she hangs like a speck of white cloud
just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other
Then someone at my side says "There, she is gone!"
"Gone Where?" Gone from my sight. That is all.
She is just as large in mast and hull and spar
as she was when she left my side
and she is just as able to bear the load of living
freight to her destined port.
Her diminished size is in me, not in her.
And just at moment when someone at my side says,
"There, she is gone!"
There are other eyes watching her coming,
and other voices ready to take up the glad shout:
"Here she comes!" And that is dying.
Van Dyke
My friend, have a fresh breeze at your back to speed you

Dr. Michael L. Daley, 67, a resident of Germantown, TN, died unexpectedly Monday, February 8, 2010, in Memphis, TN. He was the son of James J. Daley and Agnes E. (Hallisey) Walton and graduated from Arlington, MA, high school. He served in the USAF, 1960-1964. Dr. Daley was a Ballard Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at The University of Memphis. He graduated from the University of Massachusetts, BSEE 1968, and the University of Rochester, MSEE 1970, PhD 1973. Dr. Daley’s early work focused on human eye tracking and the development of predictive mathematical models. He received a postdoctoral fellowship in the Dept. of Ophthalmology and Laboratory of Neurophysiology, Good Samaritan Hospital and Medical Center, Portland, OR. He then obtained a position at the Oregon Health Sciences University in Portland where he conducted research on methodologies to detect subtle changes in vision associated with diseases such as optic neuritis and multiple sclerosis and became interested in neurological diseases and traumatic brain injury. In 1988 he accepted a position as an associate professor in electrical engineering at Memphis State University (now The University of Memphis). Dr. Daley began to work on cerebral blood flow and intracranial pressure and has presented his work at several international conferences, including the Intracranial Pressure (ICP) meetings. His research included collaborations with several colleagues at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. His most recent work focused on modeling of blood flow through the brain and alterations caused by traumatic stroke. His goal was to develop a method to continuously assess cerebrovascular pressure regulation from pressure recordings obtained from brain-injured patients in the intensive care setting. This knowledge would be critical to adapting the clinical care individually to the patient, hopefully greatly improving the outcome of procedures employed. In this endeavor Dr. Daley enlisted collaborations in the USA, Europe, and Scandinavia. For several years Dr. Daley directed the high school regional Science Olympiad and a summer enrichment program for rising ninth graders. In 1997 he served as President of the Tennessee Academy of Science. In 1996 he received an Outstanding Engineer award from IEEE and was a Life Senior Member. Dr. Daley has contributed to over 50 articles to professional publications and holds a patent. He is survived by his wife of 41 years, Carol; his daughter and son-in-law Leah and Stephen Uftring of Fredericksburg, VA. He also leaves behind his siblings: James (Lorraine) of So. Dennis, MA; John of Hyannis, MA; and Mary Perini (Richard) of Arlington, MA; as well as many nieces, nephews, and great-nieces and nephews.
We will miss you friend and classmate. We had Mr Eaton for a special math class together. A few of us got 800's on our Math SAT's. I always remember you writing in my yearbook "To the Brain thats Lazy" I guess that was because I never seemed to pay attention but when Mr Eaton called on me I would give the answer. In reality from what we read on your obituary and your career you were the real Brain. Dave Rivers Friend & Classmate
Steve was a good friend to me all through high school. We had one major thing in common, we both loved to dance. I will always remember the sock hops at the Immaculate Conception church in Cambridge where we tore up the floor. I'm glad he got to pursue his dream as a radio DJ. You might remember his radio personas, Jack Shannon or Jack Diamond. I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing and am proud to say that I can include his wife Debra and daughter Mary as very dear friends. See you in the hereafter, Steverino.

TC was my best friend as well as best man at our wedding. We were close over all these years from his time in the service to his time in Conway MA to his return to Waltham. We continued to have as great a time over all these years as we did at AHS. When Tom got ill he was still a very positive person and the SOB still wiped me in golf. We still cry about losing him but smile about all the memories. To you Tom, Carl

Marshall Derby may be best known as the Lexington Housing Assistance Board (LexHAB) chairman, a position he held for 15 years. He died Wednesday, May 16 at his home at age 64.
Marshall Derby always gave his friends laughter, retaining his sharp wit to the end of his battle
with pancreatic cancer.
He was also a giver to total strangers, helping families in need have a chance to live in Lexington. He gave his family love, showering his wife, two children and four grandchildren with caring, understanding and knowledge.
But Derby’s own words about giving, read by his friend and business partner Morton Hodin during his eulogy to Derby at Temple Isaiah Friday, describe him best. “What you get is a living, what you give is a life.
” He died Wednesday, May 16 at his home at age 64.
Derby may be best known as the Lexington Housing Assistance Board (LexHAB) chairman, a position he held for 15 years. Combining his professional knowledge of real estate development with his genuine desire to help others, he took the reins of the town’s municipal affordable housing organization and quadrupled its stock.
“During his period of leadership and inspiration LexHAB increased its housing stock from 12 to 15 units to the 50 we now have,” said Bill Hays, who has served on the LexHAB board since its inception in 1983. “We’ll be hard put to find any three people who will together be able to give the town and our agency the expertise, the inspiration, the commitment and the leadership that Marshall brought to bear.”
Derby coordinated a collaborative effort between the town, the Lexington Rotary Club, and Minuteman Regional’s carpentry program to acquire available lots in Lexington and build houses on them, to become available for low to moderate income families seeking to live in Lexington.
“Not only was he very, very smart, and had all sorts of business acumen, but he was also a real doer,” said Selectman Norman Cohen. “If he felt there was a chance we could get a piece of land and build a house on it, he persisted. He wouldn’t give up.”
Laura Derby, his wife, observed Derby over the years as he happily gave his time to helping young families find homes in Lexington. “It was so wonderful to watch. It mattered so much to him to help people live in our town who couldn’t normally.”
Derby was born on Dec. 19, 1942 in Arlington, where he also attended school through his graduation in 1960. He moved on to Tufts University, where he received his undergraduate degree in 1964 and master’s degree in 1965, the latter in chemical engineering.
He began his career in real estate development in 1969 with Benjamin L. Cohen and Sons and in 1986 he began at H & D Development, working alongside Hodin until 1995.
His life was filled with other duties, spent mainly for the benefit of others. Derby was a Lexington Town Meeting member for 20 years. He worked with the Junior Chamber of Commerce in the 70s at what is now the Massachusetts Correctional Institute in Concord helping to teach young men who were incarcerated. He served as the president and trustee of the congregation at Temple Isaiah, and he worked with the Service Corps of Retired Executives (SCORE) to provide free small-business administration consultation.
“He was most generous with his time, but he never bragged about it, so most people had any idea how much he was doing,” said Hodin.
Laura Derby said that despite his many duties away from home, her husband always put his family first. His daughter Rebecca pointed out that just like in his professional life and town life, he engaged his role as a father with compassion and understanding.
“He was very caring and giving man,” she said. “He listened well to what they were saying, and usually succeeded in helping them. He loved knowing how things worked. He had a very curious mind, and he loved sharing that.”
Derby was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer a year ago, and since then he had been flooded by letters and visitors who eagerly accepted the chance to share with him the profound effect he had on them. According to Rebecca and Laura, they number in the hundreds.
In a letter sent to Derby from a resident that he helped move into Lexington through LexHAB, she wished him “warm thoughts, hugs, and positive energy,” and included a picture of her baby daughter.
“Although I have only met you on one occasion, you often cross my mind” said the resident, whose name was omitted by the Derby’s in consideration for her privacy. “Because of you and many others we are able to live in the community.”
The last months have provided an outlet for such sentiments.
“There’s nothing lucky about having a disease that you know will kill you soon,” said Laura Derby. “But it gave people a chance to say the things they wanted to him, and he to them, which was a good thing.” After years of bringing smiles to friends, family, and people he had never met, it was Marshall Derby’s turn to smile. The day before he died, according to Laura, his daughters Rebecca and Sara, and his grandchildren Nate, Sadie, Mark, and Eliza, sat by his bedside and spoke to him.
“At that point, he was able to do very little,” she said. “But he heard their voices, and he got that huge smile on his face.”

From Mark Kahan on October 14th, 2010
Dear AHS Classmates, no simple note can capture the wonderful caring man Marshall was. He had a quick wit, and a bright, realistic, do-the-right-thing style. He made things happen.
I had the great privilege of being his friend from grade school through AHS, Tufts, and beyond. Our dads’ cars would be parked in the local Temple’s lot, and if we could, we’d choose a car, hop in, and take turns tuning the radio to see who could get the furthest ball game. We laughed and shared. And, every time we saw each other over the decades, that never changed.
Marshall was a man apart. In talking, during his illness, he quipped, “Ah, if I had known then what I know now, I would have ordered more really expensive wine! :-) When we were sad, he made us laugh. He set a standard as to what life is all about. Good friends are few and far between, and I, like many of you, feel blest in having known him.

Catherine C. “Kay” Russo, 63, of Waltham, formerly of Arlington, died Tuesday, July 25th, 2006 at Massachusetts General Hospital. Kay was the beloved daughter of the late Camille (Ross) Russo. Kay was a 1960 graduate of Arlington High School where she was active as a member of the Field Hockey Team and Captain of the Tennis team. Kay was the recipient of the 1960 Frederick V. Ostergren Memorial Award, presented to the outstanding male and female athlete in the senior class by the Arlington Touchdown Club.
Kay graduated from Boston University, Sargent College with a degree in Physical Education. She returned to Boston University to earn a Masters Degree in Education. Throughout her adult life, Kay was an active member of the Boston University, Sargent College Alumni Association.
Kay taught and coached for over 20 years at Concord-Carlisle High School. More recently, Kay specialized in gerontology, where she enriched the lives of the individuals who were fortunate to be in her care.
Kay is survived by several beloved cousins, and many close friends, all of whom were blessed to share her loyalty, humor, companionship and good counsel for many years.

Contributions in Catherine Russo’s memory can be made to the Italian Home for Children, 1125 Centre Street, Boston 02130.
I remember what a warm and friendly gal Kay Russo was to all during our high school years. So many lovely members of our class are no longer here on earth but remain alive in our memories of them.
I grew up with "Goodie" in the great 50s, along with Casey. Played ball, although "Goodie" was a much better ball player than me. Even went to his wedding. Sorry to hear of his passing. RIP
Elaine and I became friends at the West through CYO softball. We lost contact until the first renovations to the JHW where I was teaching. Her sister became our school secretary and Elaine came to see her. We renewed our friendship and expanded it. I miss her everyday. I will always remember her wearing hats as an adult to weddings (mine was one), christenings and funerals. She loved life and is missed.
We used to call him 'Timmy'... he was a quiet soul who would never hurt a flea. We always played ball on wollaston ave in front of his house..we chopped down a few trees at what was called Kenny Hill Field.We would also catch many a garder snake and a few grasshoppers..and many a frog in the pond ..try and build a tree house or fort on top of a tree limb near his home..In the winter we would sled down Kenny Hill until we were close to being frozen and frost bite. His mother lived to over 100 years old ..she was like an angel in demeaner..she always had an inviting spirit and always treated us kids with diginity and love..After Timmy died we would visit Mrs Hannon and share with her the wonderful hope of the resurrection..yes someday soon Timmy will hear Jesus' voice and come out of the memorial tomb and live a peaceful life on a paradise earth promised by our Savior Jesus Christ ...John 5:28 and 29
Jan was the love of my life for nearly forty years. She was a wonderful mother, a wonderful wife, and a wonderful friend. It has been almost ten years since I lost her and, even though I have moved on with my life, there is never a day that I don't think of her. I often think of the wonderful times we enjoyed while at AHS (I was class of 59) and the start of our married life back in Arlington. The day after we lost her a rainbow surrounded our home in Rochester, NY which inspired me to write a book about how our lost loved ones stay in touch with us. This book, Jan's Rainbow, has helped many people deal with losses and I re-dedicate it to Jan. Forever in my heart - Lindsay
I taught with Ruth many years ago in Japan. She was so very kind and a wonderful friend. I have truly missed her and was saddened to hear she is no longer with us.
Doug, thanks for being a great friend during our high school years. It’s been awhile, but words here are for us still living. While original here, you have know them since your passing. Time may have erased many details of our time at AHS, but not the known friendship we had. God bless you.
I was a friend of "Obie" from the day he entered Brackett school, from North Cambridge, to the date, July 4, 1997, of his untimely passing. He was a good friend to all of us and is missed by all. Rest in peace. Marty (Richard Martins)
I was saddened to hear years ago of Martha's passing. Her brother Tommy was a close friend and Martha was like a sister to me. She was a wonderful person with a great heart
Karen was one of my best friends in junior high and high school. We shared many good times.
From Joyce Hepburn Radochia on February 28th, 2010
Karen was a dear friend for many years, from 5th grade,, when she moved across the street from me until shortly before her death. We had lost touch for many years, but we were able to reconnect and pick up where we had left off while she was undergoing treatment. I will always be sad that I did not get to see her again, but I cherish the memories of both good and sad times that we shared.
From Joyce Radochia on February 11th, 2010
Karen was one of my best friends from the 5th grade on. She was a smart, loyal, and devoted friend.
George and I were the best of friends. We both llived in the 100 block of Brattle Street. "The Hill" to residents. I still have a picture of the two of us, at or about age 4, wearing (those dreaded) snow suits and up to our waists in the white stuff. We were the same age and went through Cutter, JHW and AHS together. While we inevitably drifted apart as I moved around the country, I can say that my life has been the better for having known George.

Excerpts from the "Desiderata" by Max Ehrmann:
"Be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars and, whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should".
"Take kindly to the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth..... Nurture strength of spirit".

We Miss You, Friend and Classmate We went thru Cutter, Jr High West, and High School Together. We remained friends until your passing.

I will always remember one of my first "dates" in Jr High School was attending a dinner party at Kacey Spangler's house with Dickie Buzzell. He was wild and crazy kid at times. Many thanks for the service and sacrifice he made for our country.
From Marie (McCarthy) Neal on February 16th, 2010
I remember Dick from 7th grade at the West on. I saw his name on the Vietnam Wall in Washing DC when I chaperoned a music group from the Ottoson Jr. High (West) in 1989. It brought back a lot of great memories! I thank Dick and all of our armed forces for what they have sacrificed for us.
From Classmates, AHS 1960 on February 4th, 2010

When I was a little girl I used to visit my grandparents in the summer. They lived on Linwood Street in Arlington across the street from Joyce's family home. I was friends with her youngest sister "Susie" and I spent a lot of time at their house. I remember how pretty Joyce was and SO very nice. She was also a great mom.
From Connie Botelho Kvicala on July 1st, 2010
Joyce and I worked at W.R. Grace after high school. She was such a great person -- so neat and smart and always looked perfect. I was very sad when I heard of her passing year back.
Bobby Tedford was one of the nicest kids I have ever met,in jr high school he always had a smile on his face.Bob I would like to thank you for the ultimate sacrefice you have made for us to live the lives we have lived,I honor and respect this classmate.
From Classmates, AHS 1960 on February 3rd, 2010

I remember Clive well. Junior high in the 1950's was filled with good times with friends at dances, parties, and other events. Clive was a sweet, friendly, intelligent and handsome boy. Many girls had a crush on him at one time, but it didn't seem to spoil him. What a tragedy that he died so young. In my memories he will never be older than fourteen.
I knew Paul from a very young age..from 5 yrs old to when he died at Symins hospital back in 1968... about 21 years ...he was way to young to die...somebody groofed at the hospital..he loved life and enjoyed playing baseball for many years in the AYA ..Arlington Youth Association and was a great pitcher and my brother Philly was his catcher and they did win some championship titles..Ara Avakian was there coach and mentor and helped them mature to fine young men..I loved Paul's family especially his MOM ..she was a wonderful loving person who always was so nice to us while we were growing up..We played golf together a few times even in our later years of life ..we always had a good relationship..many fond memories...We will meet again very soon on a cleansed earth free from sickness and death will be no more..That's a promise that Jesus gave to the person next to him on the torture stake..in essence to all of us..'You will be with me in Paradise'.... Luke 23:39-43

I remember Paul, but not during our Arlington High School Years. It was the summer before he passed away. (1968 sounds right.) At the time we were both in the Army National Guard of Mass. It was during our summer 1968 two-week active duty in Camp Drum New York where we became friends. We were both in the 1st Battalion 110th Armor HQ'd in Worcester Mass. We spent those two weeks shuttling ammo between 90mm tank ranges and the ammo dump ... a dirty job both Paul and I, well, endured mainly by cleansing our lungs with a 6-pack most every night. After summer camp, we both returned to our regular National Guard Jobs, me as Medical Platoon Sgt. and Paul in the Transportation platoon of our HQ Company in Worcester. We made plans to get together but he was hospitalized, I learned, shortly after summer camp. It must have been in November 1968, during a week-end drill, that I learned he had passed away. It's funny how after all these years you remember such details and how a re-kindled friendship, albiet short, resurects itself. and how Paul made that summer camp, on a dirty job, that much more bearable over 42 years ago!
Dear Lee, I have carried the memory of you with me for 55 years. You brought more joy to the world in fifteen years than many others can in so many more. Your warmth, your humor, your love and your kindness will live forever. I grieve for the life you lost, but I have never forgotten you. You can still make me smile with thoughts of the fun, mischief, affection and friendship we shared.
