Luke Hopkins died in Cockeysville, Md., May 23, 2012, from heart failure.

He attended Gilman School in Baltimore, then St. Paul’s in New Hampshire. At Princeton, where his father was in the Class of ’21, he graduated with honors in history and belonged to Ivy.

Weeks after graduation he married Suzanne Bunker. He then served two years as a Marine lieutenant before beginning a 42-year career at J.P. Morgan in New York, where he rose to executive vice president and managing director. At Morgan, he established and headed its Far Eastern division, headed trusts and investments and private banking. After retirement, Luke returned to his native Baltimore to help start Brown Advisory & Trust, becoming its first chairman and CEO.

Among the numerous boards he served on were those of Westvaco Corp., which his great-grandfather founded; the Garrison Forest School of Maryland; and the Metropolitan Opera Company.

Luke spent summers and sailed at a family home in Northeast Harbor, Maine. He especially enjoyed the three years he lived there in the early 2000s.

Our sympathy goes to his wife, Suzanne, whom he affectionately called “Bunkie”; his daughters, Cassandra and Suzanne; son Robert; his brother, Porter ’52; sisters Florence and Katherine; and his extended family. His eldest son, David, predeceased him.
