SOUTHBURY â Allan Tarbox was born on November 26, 1945, in Waterbury, and was a lifelong resident of Southbury. His golfing buddies would laugh when he called himself a native. He passed away on Friday, July 16, 2021.
As a young man, he worked for the Hawkins Company in South Britain. On his days off he loved to help his friends soup up their carsâ motors. At the age of 13, he took his fatherâs new lawn mowerâs motor and made a go-kart out of it.
He would race down Flood Bridge Road, much to Bill Plattsâ cowsâ dismay. He moved on to work as a drafting engineer for Pratt and Whitney in Stratford, leaving to work at the Woodbury Telephone Company.
