He was 80 years old.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Dr. Lamb, of Chazy, could be seen walking to his classes, whether in Hudson or across the pond in Hawkins, tall and lanky, over the 33 years he taught at the university. He started his career here in September 1981 as an assistant professor after attending Buffalo State University before serving in the U.S. army as a clerk during Vietnam. He worked in the Greene County Planning Department in the Catskills before attending Chicago State University where he earned his Ph.D. in geography. Positions at West Virginia College and SUNY Geneseo led to SUNY Plattsburgh. Here, he was promoted to associate professor in September 1985 and professor in September 1996. While teaching, Dr. Lamb also served as a consultant for many town planning boards in the North Country, including the Town of Plattsburgh during much of its expansion along Route 3 and Tom Miller Road.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Retiring in June 1913, he served as an adjunct for one more year in 2014.</p><p class="MsoNormal">There will be no calling hours, and funeral services are private and at the convenience of the family.
