William McG. Gibby ’68

Bill died July 4, 2022, of respiratory failure in Califon, N.J.

Bill came to us from Deerfield Academy, where he was on the football and lacrosse teams and in the Glee Club. At Princeton, Bill majored in economics, was active in the Nassoons, and was on the lacrosse team. He was president of the Nassoons his senior year. Bill ate at Tiger Inn and lived in Lockhart his senior year. His graduation followed those of his grandfather William D. Gibby 1890, great-uncle Edgar Gibby 1899, and father Robert F. Gibby ’35.

After graduation, Bill worked at various federal, state, and local government agencies before deciding to be an automobile mechanic for six years. He then transitioned to the business world: He earned an MBA from Rutgers and later was licensed as a CPA. He worked at Bell Systems for three years before working as an accountant for a time. He later joined and subsequently retired from Oticon.

In retirement, Bill liked to putter in his yard and build stone walls as well as volunteer with his church and the local historical society. He did not leave any immediate family. The class extends its deepest sympathies to his friends and loved ones.
