Chris Reznyk died Aug. 23, 2012, after a yearlong struggle with cancer. 

Rez, as his friends called him, was a psychology major from Iselin, N.J., who was heavily recruited to Princeton as a sprinter. Unfortunately, an injury freshman year prevented him from competing with the varsity team. Instead, Rez became involved in intramural track, basketball, and football. His friends and roommates, including Jim-Bob, Glik, Becky, Jordie, Cathy, and Brahns, remember him as being the fastest guy they had ever seen. On the basketball court, he executed a beautiful left-handed jumper. 

Rez, who was co-owner of the Hoagie Man on campus, loved to go to the clubs and was a talented card player. He was always a gracious host, inviting his friends over to his house when they could not fly home for school breaks. 

After Princeton, Rez became quite successful in the insurance industry, eventually
settling in Florida and becoming a senior vice president of Assurant Solutions. He is survived by his wife, Kathy; his children, Steven, Amanda, and Libby; his parents, Richard and June; and his siblings, Russ and Kim. The class extends its deepest sympathy to Rez’s family and friends. He will be sorely missed.
