The son of Leslie Sloat ’29 and Sarah Sloat, Frank was born Dec. 22, 1933, in Middletown, N.Y. He came to Princeton from Moorestown Friends School and majored in mechanical engineering. He joined Prospect Club, where he served as its majordomo. Frank managed the freshman and varsity baseball teams and roomed with Ludwig Gutmann.

Stints in military and aircraft companies were followed by Frank’s work in construction-project management. He and his family settled in Baltimore and embarked on a full travel schedule, which included a lot of camping and visits to all but two of the nation’s states.

Frank took a great interest in genealogy, finding it interesting to investigate and then walk ancestral lands, find records from the 1600s, and watch family data develop.

Frank is survived by his wife, Eleanor; sons David, James, and William; a daughter, Debbie; and five grandchildren. To them all, the class offers its condolences.
