Robert D. Stuart ’61

“Scott” Stuart died Feb. 27, 2013, from complications of a stroke suffered three days earlier.

Born in New Haven and raised in California and Illinois, he came to Princeton from Deerfield. At Princeton he majored in history and took his meals at Charter. His senior-year roommates in Cuyler were Bruce Gammie and Bob Stanger.

Following a tour as an intelligence officer in the Navy, Scott worked in bonds with the First National Bank of Chicago, later moving to Syracuse, N.Y., to be nearer to his beloved Adirondack Mountains. He retired from the RBC-Dain Rauscher investment firm.

Scott’s life in retirement centered on the Adirondacks, the communities of Inlet, Old Forge, and Eagle Bay, and a 100-year-old family camp named Paownyc on Fourth Lake. He and his wife, Penny, also traveled extensively, having returned from Indonesia just two weeks before his death.

Scott is survived by Penny; his daughter, Pamela, from his first marriage; his mother and father (Robert ’37); and his brothers, Sandy ’72 and Jim ’63, and their families. We join them in their mourning.
