Robert G. Sealy's Obituary
Robert G. Sealy, 66 of Summer Mountain Road, Spring Mills, died Wednesday, May 26, 2004 in Somerset.
He had been in failing health for some time.
He was born Aug. 27, 1937 in Aiken, PA, a small village near Bradford.
He was the son of the late Arthur Sealy and Elizabeth Mickitish.
He graduated from Bradford High School in 1956. He played football, basketball and ran track for the Owls.
In the fall 1956, he entered what was then Lock Haven State Teachers College. He played football for the Bald Eagles and was captain of the team in 1960.

In 1970, he took a job in the Penns Valley Area School District as a teacher and a coach. He retired from teaching in 1995.
He was a successful coach in many sports but his greatest achievement on the field was the school's first undefeated football team in 1982.
Even after his retirement, he stayed in close contact with the football program.
