Stephen B. Parsons, 52, of West Hartford, died Thursday, (July 20, 2000).*The son of Cecilia T. Parsons and the late Samuel Parsons of West Hartford, he was a 1965 graduate of Loomis School and a 1971 graduate of Swarthmore College. He is survived by his mother; his sister, Nancy Coker of Scotch Plains, NJ; his sister, Linda Parsons of Hartford; and four nieces and nephews. Funeral arrangements are private.
Please be sure to list Steve Parsons as one of our classmates who died.
I knew him to be a kind friend. He came to one of our five-year reunions--I'm thinking 2004 or 1999 (not sure at the moment.).
I was very sad to learn from Peter Rush not long after that reunion that Steve took his own life.
Also, can we include something in yearbook about classmates who died besides just their names?
Years they lived (i.e., 1947-2008 as a hypothetical example) at least? Maybe Swarthmore yearbook photos?
If not a paragraph about each of them.
In case anyone's interested, I didn't have a formal senior year yearbook photo taken, but there is a "candid" shot of me in it in the English Lit department section.
Thanks for your consideration.
