Henry A. duFlon ’37

Hank died July 7, 2007, in Antigua, Guatemala.

He was born in New Rochelle, N.Y., and graduated from the Berkshire School in Sheffield, Mass. At Princeton he majored in economics, was on the track team, and was editor of The Dink. He also belonged to the Varsity Club and Campus Club.

Hank entered the Army in 1941 as a private and rose to the rank of major in five years. Other periods of his government service included assignments at the White House and Defense Department under President Eisenhower and assignments at the State Department and the Agency for International Development (AID) under President Kennedy.

In 1945, Hank married Barbara Van Clief and became assistant manpower director for the Bigelow-Sanford Carpet Co. He later served as consultant with McKinsey & Co. and became director of the McKinsey Foundation for Management Research. He also headed his own consulting business in Guatemala.

Hank developed four citrus groves in Florida, and years later he bought and restored an old monastery in Antigua, which was his Latin-American base. He was listed in Who’s Who in America and Who’s Who in Industry and Finance.

We will miss Hank and remember him as a loyal classmate. To his family and friends, the class sends its sympathy.
