George Millard Lingua ’49

George died May 31, 2000, in Virginia Beach of heart disease. He was 73.

He prepared for Princeton at Christian Brothers School in Memphis. At Princeton he majored in the Woodrow Wilson School. He was a member of Prospect Club, the Glee Club, and was a former Schools Committee member. He attended our 50th reunion with his son, David, although his physical condition prevented him from participating fully.

George spent his career in finance, becoming a senior vice president of the institutional investments division of Citibank and a member of Pres. Ford's Senate Subcommittee on pension funds. He also served as president of the Natl. Kidney Foundation and was on the board of the Animal Medical Center of New York. George was an avid golfer and traveler and sang in the choir of the Church of Saint Gregory the Great.

George's wife of 20 years, Marilyn "Billie" Elizabeth Meyers Lingua, predeceased him. He is survived by a son, David, daughters Martha L. Wheless and Molly L. Mundy, and two grandchildren. To them all the class extends its deepest sympathy on the loss of a wonderful man.
