A prominent businessman and banker in his hometown of Buffalo, N.Y., Joe, as he was best known, died at 80 on Dec. 29, 1997, after a long illness. One of eight children, he came to Princeton from the Stony Brook School on Long Island, but departed at the end of our sophomore year to enroll at the U. of Chicago, where he earned a business BA in 1940. He was president of the Henrich Lumber Co. in Buffalo until its closing in the mid-'60s, when he became a vice president of the Buffalo Savings Bank. He retired in 1982.

He married Jane Metzger Stewart in Nov. 1936. They had three children: Phyllis H. Noell, Frederick K., and David Henrich. The class extends its condolences and warm good wishes to the family.
