Ian Henderson Havrelly ’64

HE NEWS of Ian Havrelly's death on Sept. 26, 1991, was belatedly transmitted to the Class and saddens those he knew him well.

Of Scottish and Hungarian ancestry, Ian was born in Paramus, N.J., and moved, in 1950, to Ossining, N.Y. from 1956 to 1960, he attended the Flackley School in Tarrytown, where he met Robert Gilman and Robert Workman, who were to become his freshman roommates at Princeton. Ian distinguished himself in high school as a precocious student of history and displayed a remarkable knowledge of the Civil War. He possessed a Union Officer's uniform and would, on occasion, dress up, fully regaled, with sword and cannon at his side. During idle moments, Messrs. Gilman, Havrelly, and Workman would melt lead ingots in the dorm room and pour bullet molds for use in Ian's Civil War pistols.

Ian was a member of Court CIL113 and majored in architecture. The University took a dim view of Ian's sing his architectural skills to adorn his campus room with eggshell crates painted to resemble acoustical les. After graduation, Ian served a hitch in the U.S. tiny, which included a stint in the wintry bleakness of Greenland. After military service, he spent a few years practicing architecture in London, before returning to the U.S. and working for several governmental agencies in Florida. At the time of his death, he was living in New York.

He is survived by his cousins Robert and Jessie WaIker and an aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. Warren Tucker, to all of whom the Class extends its sympathy.
