Henry R. Schaefer ’31

Body

HENRY R. SCHAEFER died Jan. 20, 1990. A longtime Buffalo resident and a graduate of the Nichols prep school, Hank moved to Port Colborne, Ontario, after retiring from the building supply business. He was a versatile musician and at Princeton was a member of the Triangle club, the band, the orchestra, and the Banjo Club. Hank's other avocation was hunting, mostly in northern Ontario and Quebec, where he traded everything from rabbits to moose. Hank, Jr. was our "Class baby" and threw out the first baseball at the YalePrinceton game at our fifth reunion. To his widow, Betty, and their family, we convey our condolences and best wishes.
