William A. Pearson ’32 *33

Bill Pearson died July 1, 1995, at Country Meadows in Hershey, Penn.

Having obtained his master's in mechanical engineering, Bill went to work for Harrisburg Steel Co., a division of Harsco Corp. He worked there for 40 years, retiring as president in 1975. He was also a director of Commonwealth Natl. Bank and a trustee of Harrisburg Hospital, as well as being active in a number of other civic organizations. During WWII, Bill served in the Navy, retiring as a lieutenant. A son and close relative of several other Princeton graduates, Bill was at one time regional chairman for Annual Giving. His son-in-law has written: "Bill always thought very highly of Princeton, and having attended and graduated therefrom were big events of his life."

Bill's wife, Jane, died a year ago. He is survived by two daughters, Linda Lefever (wife of Richard R. Lefever '58) and Mary Murray, to each of whom the class offers its sincere condolences.
