McClure Kelley ’21

Body

ON AUG. 11, 1993, our distinguished classmate McClure Kelley died at his home in Gladwyne, Penn., at the age of 95.

After receiving a law degree in 1925, he embarked on a career in industry. This climaxed when he became board chairman and C.E.O. of the Baldwin Lima Hamilton Corp.

After retiring, he followed his interests in dogs, shooting, fishing, farming, and gardening. He was surely the only classmate who had been, for several years, an M.F.H.Master of Fox Hounds.

His first wife, Theodora, died in 1965. Mac is survived by his second wife, Kae; two sons; one daughter; and several grandchildren.

The class extends sympathy and condolences to his family.
