Geoff Plowman

October 1988

I played hockey with Geoff for many years in the Longmeadow Hockey Association.
He was a fierce competitor and kept us motivated with his physical presence. He was one tough defenseman.
We won a Pioneer Valley Championship together when we were 13!
Geoff died on his Harley Davidson.
