This One's For You

Amherst Town Flags at half staff for former Town Manager Allen Torrey


Perhaps one of the reasons Amherst still has a Town Meeting/Select Board/Town Manager form of government is because our very first Town Manager -- Allen Torrey -- was such a good one.  

According to current Town Manager John Musante:  "Consistent with the Town's policy and past practice of lowering Town flags to half mast upon the death of a current/former Select Board member or current Town employee, Town flags were lowered in his honor."

    No problem. Allen was a good man.

    Always planned to do an in depth interview with him about all things Amherst.
