Walter Bremer Stephens ’42

Body

Walter died Oct. 10, 1995, in Albany, N.Y., his home for most of his life. At the time of his death he was retired from the family business, Thomas Stephens & Son Real Estate Co.

Walter came to Princeton from Albany Academy and majored in modern languages. During the war, he served as a technical sergeant in the Army Air Corps, at the Alaska Air Depot. From the mid1940s, through the late 1970s he was the proprietor of the family real estate business in Albany. He was a life member and past commander of Wiggand Veterans of Foreign Wars Post and a life member of the Nathaniel Adams Blanchard American Legion Post. He was also a senior league bowler.

To his sons, Russell and Walter; and to his four grandchildren, the class extends its deep sympathy.
