It has been the saddest news . Archie was the greatest man ever. I will miss him so much. As will the rest of our friends. We who grew up with Archie have remained friends for all these years. Cheryl , I am so very sorry for this unbelievable loss. I know your pain and wish there was something I could do to comfort you. To his children you were so lucky to have this mountain of a man.

Our deepest condolences on the loss of Archie. He was our sons Boy Scout leader many years ago and we all respected him and the way he taught our children. Many memories of him taking the scouts to Boy Scout camp for a week near lake George and all his activities. May God bless him and rest in peace

I had the pleasure of working with Archie at CNSE. I will always remember him as a friendly, gregarious person, quick with a smile and a laugh; as a talented colleague who excelled at his job; as someone you were glad to have the opportunity to work with.
Archie was a bright light (no pun intended) in this world. I was saddened to hear of his passing, and send my deepest sympathies on your loss.

Cheryl:
Timmy and I would like to extend to you and your family our deepest sympathy on the passing of your beloved Archie. Timmy has some very fond memories of his time spent with Archie even after he no longer was being watched by you. I will never forget that you both took time out of your busy schedule to attend Timmy's Eagle Scout Ceremony. I was touched.
Archie was a giving and caring man who will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him and spending time in his company.
Archie is now in the loving and caring hands of the heavenly Scout Master watching over all of us and especially you and his children knowing his work is done and done well.

Our deepest sympathy to Archie's family at their loss, Archie always had a smile and a joke or two to make the day at SUNY go by Although we hadn't seen each other much since retirement, I will always remember the Christmas Elf routine he and I had every year. He was a good man and will be missed greatly by all.

Oh Cheryl:
My heart is bleeding for you and all of Archie's family. Words aren't going to mean anything to you now, but when you are strong enough, the messages from family and friends will help you heal. One thing I learned was that you absolutely must take care of yourself. The sadness and tears are necessary so don't bottle it up. Crying is your right and the tears eventually will help you heal. Archie was the man everyone loved and we love you too.
Sending love,
Lynn Rhatigan
