Oliver died Nov. 6, 2013, in Santa Fe, N.M., where he and his wife, Donna, had lived for the last 30 years.

Born and raised in Syracuse, N.Y., “Ome” served in the Navy and came to Princeton after the war. He majored in engineering, was a member of Dial Lodge, and worked briefly in Indiana after graduation before returning to Syracuse and the family business, O.M. Edwards Co. He brought back his bride, Donna DuComb, and they lived in Cazenovia, N.Y., until he retired. They moved to Cuernavaca, Mexico, for a while, and then relocated to Santa Fe.

Oliver had little contact with the class, other than occasional changes of address. In 1974 he was listed as residing in Cuernavaca, and then was listed in Santa Fe some time before our 50th yearbook was published.

An obituary in the Syracuse Post-Standard suggested memorial contributions to the Alzheimer’s Association, New Mexico chapter.

He is survived by Donna, his wife of 60 years; their children, Michael, Diana, Victoria, Christopher, and Anthony; 11 grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren. The class offers its condolences to Oliver’s family.
