C. Robertson Trowbridge ’54

It is with great sadness that the class reports the loss of Rob Trowbridge, who died of a pulmonary embolism Sept. 8, 2003.

The son of Cornelius '21, he graduated from Phillips Exeter Academy. At Princeton, he was involved in numerous activities including the Triangle Show, Glee Club, and Ivy Club. Subsequently he graduated from Harvard Law School. He remained devoted to Princeton, sponsored our mini-reunion in Salem in 2002, and was a persistent and talented fundraiser for Princeton, Phillips Exeter, and other organizations. His career followed many paths including politics, nonprofit organizations, and Yankee Publishing Co., which he helped grow into a multi-

million-dollar publisher. He served three terms in the New Hampshire House of Representatives as chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, and three terms in the Senate as chairman of the Finance Committee.

He remained devoted to singing and performed in many roles in local productions. The class extends its profound sympathy to his four children, Jaime, Cor, Beatrix, and Phil; his ex-wife Lorna; his three sisters; and eight grandchildren.
