Stanley George Ivins ’34

Body

Stan Ivins, a regular presence at class and many other Princeton events, died in the Princeton Hospital on Apr. 24. He suffered a debilitating stroke in the summer of 1998, and, since that autumn, had lived in the health-care unit of Meadow Lakes, a retirement community in Hightstown, N.J.

His generosity to so many Princeton causes, including a life-income gift, and his interest in virtually all athletic activities, make him a lifelong supporter of Princeton. He served as pres. of the alumni assn. of northern Monmouth County and was always ready to do his "bit more" for Princeton.

Stan was the son of George W. Ivins 1902 and nephew of John W. Ivins 1893. He was also an inveterate correspondent on Princeton matters to classmates and paw. He wrote the reports of our 61st and 62nd reunions.

Stan leaves his wife of nearly 60 years, Greta, the former Henrietta Dauer, longtime bridge partner and travel companion to distant places, to whom we offer our sincere sympathies.
