Thomas Vaughan McMahon ’46

Body

Tom died Feb. 17, 2004, at his home in Westhampton Beach, N.Y.

Born in Brooklyn, he came to Princeton from Poly Prep. In college he played baseball and studied French. He then served in the Army and earned his law degree at St. John's U. From 1952-90, he worked at the NYC firm of Conboy, Hewitt, O'Brien and Boardman, and later was a partner of Ahmuty, Demers and McManus in Riverhead, N.Y. A member of the Knights of Malta, he helped his wife of 50 years, Barbara, support the East End Hospice in Westhampton Beach.

Tom is survived by his wife; four married children, Donald, Molly, Thomas V. Jr., and Mimi; seven grandchildren; a brother, James; and a sister, Joan. To them all, the class extends sincere sympathy.
