John Anson Hood ’40

Body

News has been received that our classmate John Hood died Jan. 15, 1994. This information has been received, via university channels, from John's widow, who lives in Houston. Unfortunately John communicated very little with Princeton or our class, so we know little of his life after leaving Princeton. We are unaware of any further details regarding his family.

John came to Princeton from the Loomis School and majored in modern languages and literature. He was also a member of the Nassau Lit board.

Our belated sympathy and condolences go out to his widow and other family connections. We are indeed saddened at the loss of another member from our everthinning ranks.
