Carl Frederick Reidemeister ’29

Carl Reidemeister died on July 8, 1999. He was 94. Although he left before graduation, he was very proud of the fact that he had attended Princeton and always had many stories to tell of his time there.

After leaving Princeton, he married Katherine S. Babb and they had three children. During WWII, he was employed at Wright Aeronautical, but his lifelong career was with the Ford Motor Co., until he retired at the age of 69. He then moved to upstate New York, in the heart of the Adirondacks, to a nonworking farm, and enjoyed about 15 years of mountain living before the death of his wife. He then moved south to be with his oldest daughter, Gail Anderson, at Nags Head, N.C., where he lived until his death. He loved the ocean and was swimming in it until age 93.

The class extends its deepest sympathy to his survivors, especially Mrs. Gail Anderson.
