William Gurd McCulloch ’37
Bill died June 16, 2004, in St. David's, Pa. He was 89.
He prepared at Choate School. At Princeton he majored in politics and was a member of the Glee Club and Terrace Club. Bill left during our junior year to work in a brokerage firm. He served with the Army during World War II, stationed in England and France. In 1951 he graduated from the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business.
In our 50th yearbook Bill wrote, "Most of my working life was spent in the stock and bond investment banking and brokerage fields." He listed hobbies as "music and sports, mainly tennis and golf. Tennis is easy — but golf, that's hard work!"
He is survived by his wife, Mary Samuelian; a stepson, Karney; a stepdaughter-in-law, Barbara; three step-grandchildren; three daughters from a previous marriage, Nancy Patton, Mary Baker, and Ginny Law; and five grandchildren.
The class extends profound condolences.
