Richard Vivolo
Richard Vivolo left a mark
at Winthrop Middle School,
where he taught shop classes
for 34 years.
Whether it was the branding on a piece of woodwork
or the sound of his laughter
after he pulled one of his infamous pranks, Mr. Vivolo
"set the tone for the whole
building" said colleague and
friend Brian Gill.
Mr. Vivolo, a retired Winthrop Public Schools teacher,
died March 12 at Brigham
and Women's Hospital from
complications after liver
surgery, He was 67:'
"Richie was my mentor,
one of my best frie}lds;" said
Gill, now principal of Cummings Elementary School in
Winthrop.
"Whether you were an
adult or a kid in that building, it was fun to be around
him," he continued. "He
would wear an embroidered
shop coat with· his name on
it, and he would take out a
handful of sawdust and blow
it out like he was blowing his
nose. And he'd do it in the
classroom or the teacher's
room. He would put people
at ease."
But Mr. Vivolo was known
for more than his jokes and
fine craftsmanship.
"I used to be in construetion, and I was having a difficult day one day teaching,"
Gill said. "Rich led me over
to window and said, 'It's
cold out there, huh? Rainy
out there, huh? You could be

whatever the minor irritation
was that day, it disappeared
immediately."

And try to reinember once again
One of our own, a familiar sight
Roaming the streets both day and night
He sat on the curb with his violin
Carefully tucked it under his chin
Picked up the bow and started to play
On a typical "AI Tabachnick Day"
He'd walk down the street and break out i:q. song
Neighborhood kids would.follow along
They didn't get close cause they didn't know when
He'd finish his song and cha$e after them
He did us no harm; it was more of a game
We'd follow along and shout out his name
He'd stop and he'd look, and we'd start to run
I truly believe he was just having fini
Nobody knew very much about him
We just knew Tabachnick and his violin
