No news from other living classmates, so I’ll try a bribe: Look at ThomasNast.com, my new website that tells Nast’s story and displays 160 of his cartoons with his characters identified and content and context explained. Any qualified classmate who calls or writes me with news about himself will receive a free copy of the 830-page, $75 America’s Most Influential Journalist: The Life, Times and Legacy of Thomas Nast (which has been praised by leading historians).
Thomas Ambrose McManus Jr. died on May 29 near Little Silver, New Jersey, where he lived. Tom received his D.D.S. from the University of Pennsylvania and practiced dentistry in Red Bank, New Jersey, until he retired. He is survived by five daughters and a son.
William M. Bollenback Jr. died on May 9 at his home in Ajijic, Jalisco, Mexico. “Bollie” received his M.B.A. from Tuck in 1950 and has been an active supporter of Tuck ever since. He retired as president of a division of what is now Honeywell at age 55 to enjoy a casual lifestyle in Mexico. He is survived by his wife, Nancy, son William III ’78, and daughters Leslie and Ann.
Herman E. Muller Jr. died on February 10, 2019, in New York City, where he lived. Skip actually graduated from Ithaca College, where he later chaired the board of trustees, and received his M.S. from Columbia. Skip was a certified public accountant with multiple famous clients. As a hobby he regularly played bass with several jazz bands in Greenwich Village (N.Y.C.). He is survived by son John and daughter Evieanne.
