Austin Killeen, 82, passed away peacefully at home in Albuquerque, N.M., surrounded by family and friends.
Born on June 12, 1942, in Springfield, Mass., Austin was an educator, coach and proud father. He was an accomplished chess player, professional boxer and avid outdoorsman who spent most of his life in Fitzwilliam.
Austin is survived by his children — Justin, Ryan, and Rhiannon — and by the many friends, students, and athletes whose lives he profoundly touched with his wisdom, generosity, and humor.
Memorial services will be held in the coming months in both New Hampshire and New Mexico.
