Norman Low Kennedy ’34

Body

Norman Kennedy died in Montclair, N.J., Nov. 8, 1995. He was born and grew up in Maplewood, N.J., from where he entered Princeton via Lawrenceville School.

At both institutions he was active in extracurricular affairs and developed a lifelong interest in economics and finance, which he pursued with considerable success for many years of employment in the brokerage/investment business. He nominally retired from his business connections in 1976, but continued to the end to be active on an informal basis to the extent his health permitted.

Prior to his involvement in this field he was engaged for several years in a family garment manufacturing business and was in the Army in the 1940s.

In 1938 he married Doris Spence and settled down in Montclair in what turned out to be a lifetime residence. Norman leaves two sons, Peter '62 and James. To them and to Doris and seven grandchildren, the class extends its deep sympathy. Norman was a faithful member of the class; he will be sorely missed.
