Anthony H. Sweet ’64

Tony died June 13, 2025, in Grand Rapids, Mich.

Born in New York City, he grew up in Washington, D.C. He attended the Landon School, where he was a member and senior-year president of the glee club, served on the school paper, and played varsity football and soccer. At Princeton, he majored in chemical engineering, played freshman soccer, sang in the Glee Club for two years, served as vice president of AIChE, and was treasurer of Cloister Inn. He earned an MBA from Harvard in 1966 and then served in the U.S. Public Health Service for two years.

Tony’s business career focused on sales and marketing in the semiconductor and electronic materials industries, initially with Monsanto, Allied Chemical, and other companies and eventually as a management and operations consultant. His work involved significant international travel and he and his wife, Pat, whom he married in 1967, both enjoyed traveling. Following Tony’s retirement, they visited the South Pacific, Africa, Europe, and Asia.

Outside of work, Tony was a man of many passions: a gifted musician (piano, guitar, singer), golfer, skier, outdoorsman, and oenophile. In retirement, he and Pat lived in Avila Beach on the California coast, where they enjoyed morning beach walks with their dog, Tucker.

Pat died in 2022. The class extends its condolences to their son, Andy, and his family.
