Lawrence P. Naylor III ’41

Larry died Oct. 6, 1994. He was loved by all and never had an enemy until WWII, when he was a Marine Corps communications officer in the Pacific. Born in Baltimore, he prepared at Calvert School and Boy's Latin, where he was a three-sport athlete. At Princeton, "Nails" was a member of Cap and Gown. He lived with Arnzen, Cleaver, Cosby, Crittenden, D. Davis, D. Evans, Hartman, J. King, Rounds, and E. Stewart.

He played end on the football team, and in 1940, he snatched an "Allerdician” pass and fought his way into the end zone to defeat Dartmouth. That same year, he scored the first goal in the first North-South all-star lacrosse game, helping to gain victory for the North.

After the war, he was a founder of the Rouse Co., which pioneered shopping malls and urban renewal and created the new city of Columbia, Md.

Surviving him are his widow, Cassandra; sons Latimer '84 and Timothy; and daughters Cassandra and Wesley. To them, we offer our condolences.
