Henry P. Andrews ’27
PIPER DIED Jan. 16, 1991, after many years of residence in Cincinnati. He retired in 1973, as a V.P., after serving since 1946, from the investment counseling firm of Scudder, Stevens and Clark. Previously he was with Haydock & Co. of Cincinnati and Lionel Edie & Co., New York, as a security analyst. Piper served in the Air Force in WWII at Wright Field, Dayton, Ohio, from 1942 to 1946, and in the Korean War for 16 months, from 1951 to 1952, where he was promoted to major, Air Technical Service Command.
Piper married Clifton Drury, in 1943, and had two sons, John and Henry P. '70.
For the Class SIXTY YEAR RECORD, Piper wrote that he had "much to be thankful for," especially his grandchildren. And he relished the memories of many years of voluntary work for Christ Hospital and the Children's Hospital in Cincinnati, He was a devoted Episcopalian and a steady churchgoer, and he was proud of his lifelong loyalty to the Republican Party. He was a confirmed devotee of bridge, played tennis until 1980 (in his 70s!) and golf until 1987. Piper loved to roam about the world, knew Europe well, and enjoyed Canadian summer trips and winter vacations in Florida and California. Sometimes he liked to settle into a comfortable chair and read American history. It all seems to add up to the kind of life a lot of us would want to enjoy. The Class extends its sympathies to his family.
