Leonard A. Verkes Jr. ’31

OUR CLASSMATE Len Verkes died Aug. 23, 1990. He came to college from St. Paul's School, and at Princeton he pulled an oar on various crews. After graduation, he became associated with the DuPont Co. in Wilmington. He was the president of the Alumni Assoc. of Delaware and served in several capacities with the Welfare Council, Boys Club, and the Mayor's Advisory Committee, all in Wilmington. Len was the initiator of a memorable minireunion two years ago at the Tides Inn, and more recently he was our very active and efficient Class agent for special funds. To his widow, Eleanor, and the members of their family, we extend our sympathy.
