Body

Bert died July 29, 2025.

He graduated from the John Burroughs School in St. Louis. At Princeton, he majored in economics, was active as an announcer at WPRB, and performed as a member of the cast of the Triangle show. He was a member of Cloister Inn and served as vice president.

After graduation and a four-year stint as an officer in the Air Force, Bert returned to St. Louis and began a career in financial services. For the next 36 years, he served as an investment adviser and certified financial planner, mostly with Merrill Lynch, retiring in 2004 as vice president and senior financial consultant. In retirement he taught courses in economics at the Lifelong Learning Institute of Washington University.

Bert had a lifelong interest in live theater and took pleasure in performing nearly every year in productions of the Kirkwood Theatre Guild. He also enjoyed golf and worldwide travel with his wife, Bobbe. “We’re still having fun,” he wrote at the end of our 50th-reunion yearbook.

Bert is survived by his wife of 62 years, Bobbe; his daughter, Kristin; his sons, Kurt and Karl; and eight grandchildren.
