Have to get this in.

Former Troy city manager & mayor Robert Conway, Jr., for whom Hudson Valley Community College named its now closed ice rink, passed away Monday at the age of 78. Conway was a graduate of Albany's LaSalle School, CBA, and HVCC, and spent 50 years employed by RPI, which inducted him into their Athletic Hall of Fame for his contributions to the school's athletic programs.
