Milton George Englert ’34

Milt Englert, one of the most enthusiastic of a loyal band of Southern classmates who, in his words, "enjoyed quite a few happy mini-reunions among themselves as well as several reunions at Princeton," died Nov. 9, 1997, in Columbus, Miss., his home for the last 21 years. Jack Goodwin, John S. Evans, and Stanley Williams, others of the group, predeceased Milt; only Bill Lee "Coon" Sanders, his friend for 67 years, survives.

Milt joined Jones & Laughlin steel mills in Pittsburgh in 1936 and was their manager of Wisconsin sales (1941-45) and senior salesman in New York (1946-51). In the early 1950s he became a partner in several steel warehouses on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Always active in Princeton affairs, he served as president of the PAA of Wisconsin (1942-43) and of the PAA of the Eastern Shore (1965-66). In 1992 he took pleasure in adopting a live tiger cub at an animal sanctuary in Caledonia, Miss. The tiger, Rachel, now 350 lbs., is a handsome specimen.

Milt is survived by his wife, Ethel (Whitaker), whom he married in 1976; two daughters, a son, and six grandchildren. To them we offer our sincere sympathies.
