The Pennsylvania State Coroners Association, chartered in 1939, dedicates this page to the memory of those members who have gone before us.
Though they are no longer with us, we recognize every one of their contributions in helping to frame the Association, to advance our profession, and to advocate for the deceased and the communities we serve.
