Dick died May 16, 2015.
Dick entered Princeton from The Hill School and joined Key and Seal. Before he earned his degree in economics in 1947, his Princeton career was interrupted by service with the field artillery of the 24th Infantry Division, ending up in Japan.
A longtime resident of Bernardsville, N.J., Dick spent his entire career in banking with Summit & Elizabeth Trust Co. in Summit, N.J. He was a founding member of the Tewksbury Foot Bassets and spent decades “whipping in.” It was a large part of his life. He pointed out that the hunting was good fun and that basset hounds and sneakers are cheaper than horses!
A few weeks before our 50th reunion, Dick was smart enough to marry Pamela White, who has assumed great interest in Princeton over the years and encouraged Dick to do the same. Pam is now vice president in charge of the widows and encouraging them to be active with the Old Guard. We extend our sympathy to Pam on the loss of Dick after too short a time.
