On Sept. 26, 1995, the class lost one of its most popular members with the death of Bill Larsen.
Bill grew up in Lima, Ohio, and attended Lawrenceville School. At Princeton he began his premedical education. As one of our most enthusiastic cheerleaders and a very active member of the Triangle Club, he was known for his outgoing zeal and for his enjoyment of life in every way. He was a member of Charter Club and graduated with honors.
To pursue his medical calling, he went to Harvard Medical School, where he graduated in 1944-but not before marrying Josephine Boswell, who was so much a part of his life for 52 years. He served as a captain in the U.S. Army Medical Corps and then completed his education at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center in NYC.
Bill and Jody moved to California in 1954, where he practiced surgery and became chief of staff at Mills Hospital in San Mateo. Always vitally active in numerous parts of their community, Bill and Jody still delighted in raising a family: William G. Jr. '66, Kathryn L. Curtis, and Robert L. To them, to their mother, and to the four grandchildren, we send our deep sympathy on the loss of a devoted and memorable husband, father, and friend.
