"Long John" died Nov. 1, 2001 at Stony Brook Hospital near his home in Port Jefferson, N.Y.

A graduate of Montclair [N.J.] HS, he joined our class in 1932. He left Princeton in his sophomore year. Before WWII he was employed by Barclay's Bank in NYC. In 1942 he entered the Army, serving in Iceland, England, and France, attaining the rank of sergeant. In late 1945 he joined Halle and Stieglitz Co., which later became Prudential Securities. He retired in 1985.

Most of his life he lived in Montclair, N.J., where he was a volunteer for organizations including the Republican Party and AG for Princeton. In 1980 he moved to St. James on Long Island and finally to Port Jefferson. John was a loyal Princetonian and for years ran our monthly NYC class luncheons. He will be remembered for his kindness and outgoing personality.

He is survived by his brother Edmund Jr. '33, nephews Marshall P. '65 and Edmund III, and a total of five grandnephews and grandnieces, including Ned '04.
