Born in Albany, N.Y., Tom came to us from Phillips Exeter Academy, where he excelled at hockey and lacrosse. He brought those skills to Princeton, ultimately becoming co-captain of the varsity hockey team and captain of the lacrosse team. He dined at Ivy, majored in art history, and roomed for three years with Madden, Ulman, Fentress, Lawrence, and Rob Wood. Tom left for a year due to illness, returned to graduate in 1961, but retained his 1960 status on graduation.
Forswearing art and architecture, Tom went into banking. Over the course of his career he learned and practiced the trade at Brown Brothers Harriman in New York for many years, then migrated north to bucolic Ghent, N.Y., where he joined the Bank of Millbrook, serving ultimately as senior adviser to the trust department.
Tom was a lifelong devotee of field sports — fly- and salmon-fishing, upland bird hunting, and hiking with a succession of beloved Labradors. He was a keen cabinetmaker as well.
Tom died March 25, 2019, from complications of a fall. He is survived by his wife of 57 years, Ba; their three married children; and five grandchildren. The class expresses our sympathy to them all.
