Earle Newton Cutler ’37

Body

Newt died on Mar. 24, 2002, in Bryn Mawr, Pa. He was 86. He came to Princeton from St. Paul's, majored in history, was a member of Ivy Club, and was voted handsomest in the class.

Newt wrote that he knew what he wanted to do when he left Princeton and stuck with banking until he retired, with time out during WWII as first lieutenant in the Marine Corps. He spent over 35 years with Citibank in NYC, left as senior vice president to become chairman of Horizon Bancorp in Morristown, N.J., until he retired in 1979. He served '37 in many capacities, including treasurer.

He is survived by his wife of 64 years, Beverly; two sons, Earle III and Michael; two daughters, Carolyn C. Goodman and Allison C. Fox; 11 grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren. A memorial service was held in Wayne, Pa., and another in Edgartown, Mass. Contributions in his memory may be made to Vineyard Sailing Foundation. The class sends its sincere sympathy.
