Body

Andy, our class president since 1993, died Feb. 8, 1998, after a short illness. Many classmates attended his memorial service at Christ Church, Pelham Manor, N.Y., on Feb. 12.

Andy is survived by his wife, the former Jean Phillips, daughters, Jeanne McAndrew, Diane McCurdy, and Heather Greacen, two brothers, and 10 grandchildren. His son, C. A. Jr., and a sister predeceased him.

Andy prepared at Albany Academy. At Princeton, he majored in politics and was a member of the Glee Club, the band, the Undergraduate Dance Orchestra, and Quadrangle Club.

He earned his MBA at Harvard Business School in 1940, and worked for Scoville Mfg. Co. of Waterbury, Conn. He was in the Navy from 1942-46, serving in the Pacific on the USS Intrepid, leaving as a lieutenant. Thereafter, he worked at Chemical Bank for 35 years, retiring as a v.p. of the international banking division. He was on the board of Canada Life and the arbitration panel of the NY SE.

Andy was mayor of Pelham Manor and a member of the Christ Church vestry, the Pelham Country Club, the Princeton Club of New York, and the Weekapaug [R.I.] Tennis Club. He was president of the Clan McLeod Society, U.S.A. A man of warmth, energy, and great generosity of spirit, he will be sorely missed by all of us.
