Jack was born on April 20, 1925. In World War II he served as a sergeant in the Army Air Force and was awarded the Air Medal and the Purple Heart. After the war he came to Princeton and majored in chemistry, but later received his bachelor’s degree from Park College in Missouri.

Jack worked for Colgate-Palmolive as a research chemist and later was variously employed with American Can Co., Borden Co., and Finger Lakes Packing Co.

At the time of his death he was living in Madison, N.J., with his wife, Sarah Wilson Bennett, usually known as Sally. In addition to his wife, Jack is survived by his children, John III and Deborah B. Athens. To them all, we extend the condolences of the class.
