Stewart Sullivan died Oct. 28, 2013, in New York at the age of 84.

Stewart, nicknamed “Sully,” came to Princeton from Nicholas Senn High School in Chicago, where he was class president and led the fencing team. A member of Elm Club and an economics major at Princeton, he was on the fencing team for three years, serving as captain for its most successful seasons. After graduation, he served in the military for 33 months, and then went to work for Charles Pfizer & Co. in Brooklyn.

Stewart spent his working career at Pfizer, beginning in personnel and then in international labor relations. He was delighted that his work required frequent overseas travel and afforded the opportunity to develop worldwide friendships and experience many cultures. He retired from the company in 1993, but remained active in the field. As a native Chicagoan and longtime New Yorker, Stewart was a big Yankees fan but always remained a proud and loyal Cubs supporter, no matter how they fared.

He is survived by his wife, Judith Alspaugh Sullivan; his daughter, Karen; granddaughter Willa; and his brother, Humphrey. The class sends its condolences to Stewart’s family.
