Terence W. Toran ’70

Terry died suddenly Feb. 16, 2015.

He prepared at Uniondale High School in Baldwin, N.Y. At 6 feet 3 inches tall and weighing 250 pounds, he was one of the most physically imposing members of our class.

A chemical engineer, Terry was active with the Princeton Rugby Club, the crew team, Triangle Club, and his good friends at Cannon Club.

Drafted during his senior year, Terry joined the Navy and retired 20 years later as a commander. Four years of active duty included two deployments to Vietnam as department head of a guided-missile cruiser. Terry went to the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth, where he earned an MBA in finance, played on the rugby team, and chaired the Tuck Social Club.

Terry worked in consulting, oil, and financial services before landing at Marriott Corp., where his projects included development and financing of eldercare facilities. He ended his career with Macau Capital Advisors/Nassau Advisors.

While Terry had a physically formidable appearance, he was a loyal and abiding friend who could offer the hard advice that only a friend can give. He was a teller of truth and ferociously loyal.

To his wife, Cathy; and his sons, Mike and Paul, the class extends its deepest sympathy.
