Question
Hello Fabio,

Through the players that have worn the Celtics uniform, do you have any idea who amongst them have passed away? I can only think of Andy Phillip, Pete Maravich, Derek Smith, and Reggie Lewis........

Answer
Unfortunately, Gerry,

there's a lot of ex-Celtics who passed away. Here you have the list. I think it's up to date, but if you have (sad) updates, you are free to contact me. Here we go:
Don Barksdale, Moe Becker, Harry Boykoff, Chuck Connors, Chuck Cooper, Hal Crisler, Bob Doll, Bob Bonham, Gene Englund, Wyndol Gray, Sihugo Green, Phil Hankinson, Clarence Hermsen, Mel Hirsch, John Janisch, Tony Kappen, Bob Kinney, Frank Kudelka, Tony Lavelli, Reggie Lewis, Pete Maravich, Saul Mariaschin, Horace McKinney, Dick Mehen, Ed Mikan, Joe Mullaney, Dick Murphy, Jack Nichols, George Nostrand, Stan Noszka, Dermie O'Connell, Andy Phillip, Mel Riebe, Ed Sadowski, Fred Scolari, Connie Simmons, Derek Smith, Art Spector, Red Wallace.
I take this chance to send all of them my personal thank you for the part they played in the birth of the Green Legend, and a prayer too.
