Caldwell Sidney Johnston ’27

CALDWELL SIDNEY JOHNSTON died June 30, 1990, in Phoenix. The first word of his death or of his career after graduation was received only recently. Born in New Haven, he majored in mathematics at Princeton and was a member of the varsity water polo team and of Arbor Inn.

He served for many years as district manager for Servel Refrigerators in Indianapolis and Milwaukee. He married Francis Jane Neher of Salt Lake City in 1983 1. She died in 983. During WWII, he worked for the War Production Board in Evansville, Ind., and Dayton, Ohio. The Johnstons moved to Laguna Niguel, Calif., upon his retirement in 1966.

He is survived by his children C. Sidney III and Judith Herbert, three grandchildren, and two greatgrandchildren.

Mrs. Herbert writes that her father loved to tell his family of the occasion on which he swan dove into the Princeton swimming pool, forgetting that it was pool cleaning day, and landed in three inches of water, knocking himself unconscious, but with no other injury than a broken nose.

The sympathy of the Class goes belatedly to Sid's family.
