Floyd Weinstock ’75

Floyd Weinstock died Aug. 24, 2007, of a traumatic brain injury suffered while rollerblading.

Floyd came to Princeton after growing up in White Plains, N.Y. His time on campus on weekends was limited by his regular trips to visit his future wife, Maureen O’Neill, at Cornell. They had been married for 32 years at the time of Floyd’s death. A religion major at Princeton, Floyd enrolled at the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Medicine after graduation. He completed his residency at Wills Eye Hospital in Philadelphia, and established a thriving ophthalmology practice in Lawrenceville, N.J, settling in nearby Pennington.  

Floyd will be remembered by his friends and patients for his excellent sense of humor, as a very good pianist and tennis player, and as a caring, dedicated physician. Above all, though, Floyd was a family man, devoted to Maureen and his children, Erin and Matthew. He also found time to keep up with old friends. Rollerblading was his favorite form of exercise.

The class extends its deepest sympathy to Maureen, Erin, and Matthew on the loss of this talented physician and loving husband and father.
