Lee Carey died March 4, 2013, in Hilton Head, S.C.
Lee was born and raised in Brooklyn, N.Y., where he attended Polytechnic Prep School. At Princeton he majored in economics and graduated with high honors. His interests were tennis and crew, and he was a member of the Catholic Club and Campus Club.
Lee went on to be CFO of the Continental Group and a consultant to New York Hospital – Cornell Medical Center. He moved to Hilton Head, where he served on the board of Hilton Head Hospital and was a founding member of the Hilton Head Foundation (now the Community Foundation of the Lowcountry).
Lee was predeceased by his first wife, Gertrude Nugent, his second wife, Alice Van Nostrand, and by his brother, Paul B. Carey.
He was a devoted, lifelong Princetonian, attending many games and filling his home with tigers and Princeton memorabilia.
To his surviving family, daughter Margaret Clime; son Peter Carey; five grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; and his sister, Jean Tollini, we extend deepest sympathy for the loss of their avid Princetonian.
