Body

Barry Stockdale died June 16, 1995, at the Jersey Shore Medical Center close to Ocean Grove, N.J. Barry attended Princeton from Nov. 1943 until Dec. 1944, during which period he was with V-12. He married Edith Read in 1946; she died in 1955. In 1960 Barry married Dorothy Naughright, who died in 1974.

For many years Barry worked as personnel manager of the Air Cruisers Co., but he changed careers and was ordained in the Episcopal Church in Apr. 1985. He then became deacon of St. Mary's by the Sea in Point Pleasant, N.J. Barry also served on various diocesan committees and was president of the shore-area Pop Warner Football League.

Barry leaves one son, Daniel Stockdale, a stepson, Kerry Duke, a daughter, Linda Warren, and six grandchildren. Barry spent little time at Princeton but remained in touch occasionally. To his three children and grandchildren, the class sends its sympathy and remembers them in their loss.
