Tom Halladay ’31

Tom was born Sept. 16, 1909, in Englewood, N.J., and died Apr. 10, 1999, in Oxford, Pa. following a lengthy illness.

He prepped at Hotchkiss, and when he arrived at Princeton ventured into several fields, such as freshman football, gym and track squads, cross country squad, second squad polo, Clio Hall, and Court Club.

For a spell after graduating, he worked in a Wall Street brokerage firm and after an interlude of horse farming went to work for the Deepwater Plant of the Dupont Co. In Jan. 1942, he entered the field artillery of the Army, and served as battery officer in Europe. He held the rank of first lieutenant when he was discharged in Sept. 1945.

Thereafter, Tom became a dairy farmer in Lancaster and Chester Counties.

Surviving are his wife, Blanche Halladay; three sons, David, Tom Jr., and Brian; and four great-grandchildren. The class extends its deepest sympathy to the entire family.
