Sean Peltier and his mother, Denise Roark Peltier, were quick to email us that they were the woman and young man in the overalls at the Little Red Schoolhouse in the spring of 1995. ‘The boys and girls in the class were finishing up their papier mache stick puppets. Sean's was turquoise blue with plastic animals glued to it. When the puppets were finished, the kids performed an original play for their parents,' Denise explained. Sean added in his email, ‘If I do say so, I look pretty good in overalls. Maybe it's time to revive that look.' Sean, now 22, is an EMT and firefighter with Village and North Adams Ambulance and the Lenox Fire Department. He also volunteers with the Williamstown Fire Department and the Williamstown Forest Wardens. A trip to the microfilm disclosed the other little boy was Andrew Alden. The photo originally ran May 25, 1995.
