George Metzger Todd Jr. ’35

George died Feb. 10, 1998. He was 86. He was born in Toledo, Ohio, in which vicinity he and his family lived for many years. He prepared at Andover but left Princeton at the end of freshman year to obtain a bachelor's degree and also to do graduate work at the U. of Michigan.

During the war he served for four years in the Merchant Marine, then joined the Toledo firm of Bell and Beckwith, members of the New York Stock Exchange, where he became a partner. He married Catherine Troxell in 1948, and they had two daughters, Margaret (born in 1949) and Cynthia (born in 1950). A second wife, Helen, added two stepdaughters to the family.

The Todds lived in Perrysburg, Ohio, and George ended his business career working with A.G. Edwards, the noted investment firm. As George wrote in '35's 50th-reunion yearbook, "Still working and enjoying same." The class extends its most sincere sympathy to the family.
