A Growing Tribute Gallery of Over 1,000 Cast Angels
For nearly four decades, Jeff Peterson (’69-’70B, ‘70A) has diligently compiled and maintained this database of the alumni we have lost over the many years. Since 2015, Michael Scott Curnes (’80B) has translated this database of lost cast members into a dynamic and moving tribute video which gets updated each time we are notified of another passing. If you would like to reach the alumni responsible for this memorial project, please email: memorials@uwpiaa.org. If you are aware of alumni tribute videos posted elsewhere online that we can add to the UWPIAA YouTube Channel, please share a link or email the video file to us at memorials@uwpiaa.org.
