Fred died Aug. 11, 2010, from diabetes and congestive heart failure.

Fred entered Princeton from Kearny (N.J.) High School. He was a biology major and a member of Prospect Club, The Daily Princetonian staff, and the Premed Society.

He married Carole Stelman in 1960 and they had one child, Laura, but were divorced in 1967. In 1983, Fred met Ron Williams, and they became life partners for 27 years and had a civil union in 2007.

Fred attended NYU Medical School, where he also had a residency in obstetrics and gynecology. After serving in the Army at Fort Polk, La., he returned to New Jersey and opened a private practice in Somerville. He then went into industrial medicine, first joining Johns-Manville and subsequently working for New Jersey Manufacturer’s Insurance Co. until his retirement in 2002.

Fred loved theater, fine dining, travel, reading, and showing dogs. He visited every state in the United States and much of Europe, Canada, and parts of Asia. Travel also allowed him to see penguins, polar bears, and buffalo in their natural habitats.

Fred always had purebred dogs, first Shetland sheepdogs and then Borzoi. He was a licensed judge of Borzoi and published the book Your Borzoi.

The class sends sympathy to Laura; Ron; and Fred’s brother, Philip. (Your class memorialist and secretary express appreciation to Jerry Porter for preparing this memorial.)
