James Haley Buxton ’61
[node:field-image-collection:0:render]Haley died Sept. 16, 2019, in his sleep in Norfolk, Va.
According to the Freshman Herald, he came to us from Canfield (Ohio) High School. All we know about his life at Princeton is that he was in the Band. We are assuming that he left Princeton after freshman year.
His obituary in The Virginian-Pilot says he was former chairman of philosophy at Old Dominion University, a computer science instructor at Tidewater Community College, and a runner, drummer, amateur magician, and golfer who had a passion for books and math.
His wife, Suzanne, had predeceased him four years earlier. At the time of his death he was survived by his son Brenton and his family, and his sisters Pat and Kate.
