Martin A. Mansfield Jr. ’68

Marty died July 29, 2022, of inclusion body myopathy at home in Sarasota, Fla.

He came to us from Thomas Jefferson High School in Denver, where he was active in class council and track. At Princeton, Marty majored in politics, ate at Cap and Gown, and lived at 334 Foulke Hall his senior year. Upon graduation, he attended Columbia Law School, where he earned a law degree. 

Marty spent his postgraduate years practicing corporate law, specializing in franchising back in Denver as a sole practitioner. He was selected as the youngest-ever president of the Arapahoe County Bar Association during his time in Denver. He continued his legal practice in Sarasota right up until the day before he died. In his spare time, he was fascinated by the art and history of antiques and ran a pop-up antiques booth. Marty was also a devoted numismatist with a somewhat offbeat sense of humor. He and his wife did Pilates together, walked two miles every evening, and made sure to swim in the sea at least once every month. He was devoted to June (whom he proposed to three weeks after meeting her), and almost more so to his baby granddaughter, Juliana.

The class extends its deepest sympathies to June, his two stepchildren Jacqueline and Brandon, and his extended family and friends.
