Richard C. Hollyday Jr. ’50

Dick died Nov. 5, 2003, from complications of ALS.

He graduated in 1945 from St. Paul's School in Concord, N.H., then served two years in the Army. His daughter, Anne, wrote, "Dad was a proud Princeton graduate (high honors) and an English major who wrote a wonderful thesis on T. S. Eliot." He was a member of the Rugby Club and Cottage Club.

Following graduation from Columbia Law School, Dick worked at Davies Hardy, a NYC law firm. He then joined IBM as a lawyer, where he worked for 30 years in the real estate and construction division, becoming the senior counsel.

Before and after retiring to Vero Beach, Fla., in 1993, Dick also was a resident of Wilton, Conn. He was active in Wilton as a volunteer at the public library, and in local environmental groups including the Nature Conservancy and the Wilton Land Conservation Trust.

Our sympathy goes to his wife of 49 years, Jane; his three children, Richard, Anne, and Thomas; his sisters, Edith Hollyday and Blair Gray; and his brother, James.
