1962

Raymond Leo Dolan Jr. died last December 10 at his home in Pelham, N.Y. He was 48.

I knew Ray as a classmate at Tuck '70, and then as a roommate in New York City for three rollicking years. Ray was his own man, at peace with himself, warm and compassionate with others. His was a gifted intellect—marvelous in a serious discussion of politics, current events, literature. But Ray's gift to those who knew him was not the seriousness in life but its levity. With his Irish wit he made us laugh with him, at him, and most importantly, at ourselves. He helped us learn not to take ourselves too seriously, how to keep perspective and balance. But with his wit and humor, there was always a sense of compassion.

An economics major at the College, Ray spent a number of years with Citibank. He leaves his wife, Sandra, a son Brad, his mother, and three sisters.
