Willis Lampert Walling ’44

Lamp died Dec. 8, 2015.

A native of Minneapolis, he was at Princeton only a short time and it seems Princeton never saw him again. His Nassau Herald listing provided no roommate’s name, club, major, or activities.

Lamp transferred to the University of Minnesota, married Andrea in 1943, and then entered the Air Corps, where he was a master sergeant. After the war he graduated from the University of Minnesota School of Architecture. He apparently had a successful career in architecture.

His name was listed in our 10th-reunion book, which announced he had two children. He had a different address in our 40th; a Naples, Fla., address in our 50th; and Mesa, Ariz., in our 60th, where his wife’s name was listed as Jean. He had four children, five grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren.

Do any classmates remember Lamp?

Lamp donated his body for research “so students could learn something from this old body.” Live on, Lamp.
