Brewster Montgomery Loud ’61

We lost Bump on March 26, 2004. He died at his home in Thousand Oaks, Calif., after battling lung cancer for more than a year.

Born in Grosse Point, Mich., he attended Culver Military Academy and was regimental commander in his senior year. Several Culver classmates traveled to California only weeks before his death for a final visit.

At Princeton, Bump majored in economics and finance, took his meals at Cottage, and was a football letterman. His senior-year roommates were Doug Hutchison, Mike Wurmfeld, Steve Sachner, Phil Pritchard, and Bill Pelton.

After Princeton his career in marketing and advertising included stints with International Paper and Young & Rubicam, followed by a number of entrepreneurial ventures. Along the way Bump acted in several movies, plays, and national TV commercials. An avid horseman and tennis player, he was also active in the Church of the Epiphany in nearby Oak Park.

He is survived by his wife, Judie Carroll; his children, Shawn and Samantha; his mother and brother; and four grandchildren. With them, we mourn the passing of our friend and classmate.
