Frederick Peter Walther Jr. ’28

Fritz Walther died in Florida Feb. 10, 1996.

He was with us at Princeton only for the first semester of freshman year. He then left to attend Amherst College. Later he studied for three years at Tufts School of Theology. He then opted for a career in the business world. For some years he was employed in sales promotion for a coal company. He then formed his own management and sales promotion firm in Wayland, Mass. He also became a director of Brookhaven, Inc., and was a trustee of the Wayland Junior Home Assn., Inc. He was chairman of the Wayland PTA, and a cubmaster. He was a member of the religious education committee of the Unitarian Church.

In 1931 he married Helen Nagle Goentner; they had two sons. Since retirement they have divided their time between Chatham, Mass., and Sanibel and Ft. Myers, Fla.

Fritz maintained an interest in Princeton and commended the Alumni Assn. and the Class of '28 in keeping track of members of the class who have not been active in Princeton affairs. Although not many of us got acquainted with Fritz during freshman year, the class extends its sympathy to Helen and their sons.
