Edward Mitchell Murray ’34

Ted Murray, who retired in 1985 as director of research at Ammirati and Puris, a small NYC advertising agency, after 30 years with Young & Rubicam, died Mar. 13, 2001. He was 89. He was one of only 20 Princeton alumni to have contributed to AG every year since its start in 1940.

Since 1990, Ted was a resident of Crosslands, a retirement community in Kennett Square, Pa., where, among other activities, he served as president of the residents' association. Before moving to Crosslands he lived for 41 years in Port Washington, N.Y., where he was "involved," in his words, "in sailing, singing, amateur theater, and community leadership - the Episcopal church, as Sunday school teacher, lay reader, vestryman, warden, etc."

In 1947, Ted married Gainor Lowry, a 1944 Wheaton college graduate, who survives him; as do a daughter, Margaret, a son, Robert, a daughter-in-law, Lucy Richardson Murray, and a granddaughter, Katherine Meadows Murray. To them, we offer our sincere sympathies.
