Jeffrey J. Wong ’65

Jeff died Nov. 16, 2001, of a heart attack at home in Sausalito. Jeff was born on July 24, 1943, in San Francisco, played the Prince in a high school production of The King and I, and never relinquished the role. Roommates Hilliard '67, Jake Jacobson, Appler, Asbill, Cady, Cox, Donaker, Greco, Haines, Keker, Keller, McCardle, Pete Riley, Bruce Robertson, Roth, Singer, Sisco, and Spencer will attest to the phenomenon of nature and humor that was Jeff. Jeff majored in politics and played leads in Triangle Shows and Cannon Club parties. After a JD from Cal, he joined the old Chinese firm of Dinkelspiel & Dinkelspiel. Long-time editor of Equipment Leasing, a leading treatise, Jeff had a national reputation in leasing and lending. He was president-elect of the American Counsel Assn. and a member of Cooper, White & Cooper of San Francisco. Jeff's avocation was stand-up comedy, starring in shows at the Bohemian Club of San Francisco. He was cremated in his '65 reunion uniform and his ashes scattered at the Bohemian Grove.

This warm, generous, and gifted classmate is survived by his parents, Joe and Lillian Wong, his sister, Judy Wong, and his lifemate, Lynn (Rocky) Randall. His family has established the Jeffrey J. Wong Memorial Fund in his memory.
