JOHN W. GATES ’31

Jack died July 6, 2006, after a long illness.

Jack was talented in many ways, and extended his friendship to help others. Those who were privileged to know Jack and his lovely wife, Francie, remember their hosting a mini-reunion while he headed the Chase Manhattan Bank in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands.

Jack is survived by his beloved wife; children Nancy Gerber, John W. Gates III, and Norman Thomas Gates (named after his maternal grandfather, Norman Thomas 1905); and great-grandchildren Kaiden Lauren and Julia Gerber; to all of whom the class extends condolences.

Charles Alexander Hughes ’40

Chuck died quietly June 21, 2006, after a long illness.

He prepared at Staunton Military Academy, and transferred in 1937 from Northwestern University to Princeton. Among his relatives who attended Princeton was John Sharer Allen ’35.

At Princeton, he majored in art and archaeology, and was a member of Theatre Intime, the German Club, Spanish Club, and Gateway Club. He also earned a master’s in general and comparative linguistics from Columbia.

From 1942 to 1945, Chuck was a staff officer and interpreter in the Coast Guard. The rest of his life was devoted to the study of the world’s languages, and he wrote a number of books called the World Language Series. In the process, he traveled the world, freelancing as a cruise director and interpreter. For nine years he ran his own school of languages in which 125 languages were taught, including a dozen American Indian languages. “To secure those (American Indian languages), I had to go and live right on the reservations themselves,” he wrote in our 25th yearbook.

He was a member of the American Council of Learned Societies.

Chuck is survived by his sister, Helen Hafner; his brother, William; and the family of his deceased sister, Janet Stolz. His classmates offer them their deep sympathies.

HARVEY Norman LOTHRINGER ’41

Harvey died May 22, 2006, in his home in Hastings-on-Hudson, N.Y. The youngest member of our class, he had hoped to attend our 65th reunion.

A member of Gateway Club, Harvey participated in crew, track, ski club, yacht club, and the Cane Spree. A notable accomplishment was that Harvey was one of the few who managed to take the clapper from the clock on Nassau Hall, thereby earning the nickname “Clapper.” He later donated the stolen clapper to the University archives.

Harvey earned a medical degree from New York University Medical School in 1944, and then served as a captain in the Army until 1947.

After retiring from the active practice of medicine, he was proud to attend the graduation of his daughter, Lorraine, from Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons on May 17.

JOHN GALLAGHER FARLEY Jr. ’45

John died March 27, 2006.

He entered Princeton from Birmingham University School, following in the footsteps of his father, John Sr. 1908. He was a member of Court Club. He majored in mechanical engineering and joined the Navy V-12 program, which sent him to Cornell in 1943. He then was commissioned from Midshipman School at Columbia in early 1945. He completed his extensive Ivy education by attending the Navy Communication School at Harvard before being assigned to the USS Hornet, where he served as communications officer.

After receiving his degree in 1947, John joined the Alabama Power Co. but was recalled for service in the Korean War, serving as communications officer for the commander of Carrier Division III. After rejoining Alabama Power he became manager of the company’s environmental affairs and served on the Alabama Air Pollution Control Commission before his retirement from Alabama Power in 1986.

John married the former Dixie Hayes, who predeceased him in 1998. He is survived by his daughters, Janie Farley Behr and Martha Farley Walker; a stepdaughter, Linda Stanford; his brother, Joseph Farley ’49; and five grandchildren. The class expresses its sympathy to all of the family.

The Class of 1945

 


James Gregg Dougherty Jr. ’47 *49

After two years in the Navy as an electrician’s mate, Jim returned to Princeton and graduated in 1948. In 1949 he earned a master’s degree in electrical engineering from Princeton and married his beloved spouse, Jeanne.

They stayed on in Princeton when Jim joined the Kelly Co. in New York. (During these long trips he “learned the art of folding The New York Times lengthwise.”) Fortunately, Jim was promoted and posted to Maryland, happily relieving him of the grinding daily commute to New York. Kelly became Vitro Laboratories, and Jim worked on managing and designing military and other electronics projects.

After retirement in 1991, Jim’s life centered on tennis (in which he had long excelled), golf, cruising the Chesapeake, wintering in a family home in Florida, and, above all, life with Jeanne and the family.

Jim died Jan. 30, 2006. His brother, Bob ’50, delivered a loving tribute at his memorial service that recounted many happy childhood experiences that portrayed Jim’s loving guidance as a mentor. After the war they enjoyed two wonderful years (1946 to 1948) together as Princeton students. Bob concluded: “Jim was a gentleman in every sense . . . courteous and kind, gentle but not weak . . . honest to the core.”

We, too, celebrate these enviable qualities and send our affection to the family.

The Class of 1947

 


William F. Wright ’47

“Wid” Wright led a rich life, dedicated to his ministry and service to others.

During World War II he served in the Coast Guard aboard troop ships, participating in the invasions of Leyte, Lingayen Gulf, and Okinawa.

He began Princeton in 1946, married Anne Parsons in 1947, and graduated in 1949. He said his Princeton experience was “invaluable in providing a broader view of life” that helped him to discern the deep-seated values that guided his pastoral career.

In 1955 he became a committed Episcopalian; in 1964 he abandoned a promising career in his family business and began studies leading to his ordination in 1969. He served as rector of St. Thomas’ Church (“under the big sky”) in Rawlins, Wyo., and later at St. Stephen’s Church in Sierra Vista, Ariz.

In 1988 health problems forced his retirement, but Wid pursued his longtime passion, astronomy. Anne died suddenly in 1995. Fortunately, Wid’s desolation and despair were relieved by his happy marriage to longtime family friend Joyce Wick.

Wid died Dec. 3, 2005. The lodestar of his career was providing deep-seated love, friendship, and service to others. “A truly creative life,” he wrote, “comes as we enjoy each other by loving and sharing with each other.”

We celebrate his career, and tender our heartfelt sympathy to Joyce and to Wid’s four children.

William Draper Blair Jr. ’48

The class lost one of its most distinguished members with the death of Bill Blair Aug. 5, 2006.

Bill had two major careers. He worked for the State Department from 1959 to 1980, retiring as deputy assistant secretary for public affairs. During those years he was active in environmental organizations, including the Audubon Naturalist Society and the Nature Conservancy. Bill served as president of the Nature Conservancy, a land preservation organization, from 1980 to 1987.

A native of Charlotte, N.C., Bill joined us via Hotchkiss. At Princeton he won the English prize, dined at Cottage, and was in the Press Club. After graduating magna cum laude in 1949, he was married and joined the Baltimore Sun. As a Sun war correspondent, he was sent to Korea, where he picked up a bullet in the chest and a Purple Heart. In 1953 he joined Newsweek to become bureau chief in Bonn and Paris before being recruited by the State Department.

His family’s longtime home in Washington became what is now known as Blair House, a place where visiting White House dignitaries stay.

Bill is survived by Jane, his wife of 57 years; daughters Jane and Liz; and four granddaughters. In recent years Jane and Bill divided their time between Washington and Vinalhaven, Maine. The class conveys its condolences and shares in this loss.
