John attended the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute. At Princeton he studied architecture, belonged to Cottage, and played lacrosse. He was in the American Institute of Architects student chapter and roomed with Phil Uzielli and Herb Oven.

After military service he returned to Princeton and, in 1958, earned an MFA. He spent his career practicing architecture and was president of the Maryland Historical Society, as well as a member of the boards of Children’s Hospital and Ladew Topiary Gardens.

John died Nov. 13, 2021. He is survived by his wife, Joan; and his children, Kathleen, J. Lockwood, and Lee. To them the class extends our best wishes, with appreciation for their father’s service to our country.
