Robin Williams would have been 65 this July, still relatively young, presumably going strong. That’s the big tragedy of his suicide in 2014 — he was far too young. Pete Carroll will be 65 in September. You may know that the two of them were high school classmates at Redwood High School in Larkspur, CA — Class of ’69.
But did you know that they were also college classmates? And that the two came within one year of being football teammates? Both played freshman football in high school — Carroll at Redwood High, Williams at Detroit Country Day School in Michigan.
