Edward Forest De Candee ’37
With sadness, we report the death of Ned Candee, from pneumonia, following a stroke June 19, 2003. He was a loyal, enthusiastic classmate, and he served as class agent for many years. We particularly remember the 65th reunion, when four of his children proudly marched with him in the P-rade.
Ned came to us from the Lawrenceville School. He majored in modern languages, held two scholarships, and graduated with honors. He was on the track team and the editorial board of the Daily Princetonian, and was a member of Dial Lodge.
Ned had a long career in public relations and advertising. He was director of public affairs for Cyanamid International at his retirement in 1982. He was proud of his travels on seven continents, helped by his fluency in Spanish and French.
Ned was predeceased by his first wife and the mother of his children, Anita Jones, in 1985, and by his second wife, Jane Morgan, in 2002. His survivors include children Hamilton II '75, Barbara McCarthy; Joan Collins, Virginia, Catherine, and Paul; 12 grandchildren; and one great-grandson. The class will treasure his friendship and offers its sincere sympathy.
