Rowland Richards Jr. ’57 *64

Toby died Jan. 8, 2013.

At Princeton, he joined Court Club and majored in civil engineering. After graduating he earned a master’s degree in civil engineering from Cal Tech.

Toby then spent two years in the U.S. Public Health Service. Returning to Princeton, he earned a Ph.D. in civil engineering in 1964 and was invited to stay on to teach and research.

In 1967, he married his lovely wife, Patty. They had four children, Rowland, George ’94, Kelvey, and Jean. Over the years they had a sabbatical leave to New Zealand, did research on space colonies and harmonic holes, and spent summers farming in Vermont.

Toby became a professor at the State University of New York at Buffalo, where he taught civil engineering for 30 years.

The class sends its sincere condolences to Patty, their children, and grandchildren.
