Thomas H. Pollock ’43

Body

Tom died on May 23, 2002, at the age of 81. He died quietly in his sleep, after having suffered from Alzheimer's for several years. He worked for the Navy Department in Philadelphia for many years, retiring in 1984. Following his retirement, Tom and his wife traveled extensively throughout Europe, Africa, and the US. Ardent golfers, the couple passed many happy hours on the course until Tom was physically unable to continue playing.

Tom is survived by his wife, the former Donna Hart, and one daughter, Tricia Pollock Henry. To the family, we extend our deepest condolences.
