George Klints ’66

Body

George died July 9, 2020.

George was born in Riga, Latvia. At an early age he immigrated with his family to the United States. He graduated from The Hill School where he played baseball, hockey, and soccer. He arrived at Princeton as part of a Hill School contingent that included Chuck Ensminger, Dave Hinshaw, Steve Kizer, John Magenheimer, John Mason, Jon Morse, and Mike Pflaumer.

George did not return to Princeton after our freshman year. At the time of his death, he resided in Colorado, where he had worked as a general contractor.

The class extends its condolences to George’s partner, Dinah Lee Schwartz, and to his family.
