Class of 1963

Martha McCauley Anderson, Barbara Smith Langworthy and Bill Silverman write that along with Norm Alt, Carter Booth, Jennifer Ketay Brock, Glenn Cashion, Elaine Piller Congress, Dewey Moser ’64, Bob Phillips, Ernst Rothe, and Bill Van Ness, they attended a celebration of the life of Dayton Carr [Obituaries, November-December 2020] on Sept. 30 at the New York Yacht Club. “On September 30, classmates, colleagues, family, and friends of Dayton Carr gathered in the famous Model Room at the New York Yacht Club, where Dayton was a trustee for six years, to celebrate his life after his passing on April 7, 2020. Other Class of ’63 members, and alums from other classes, joined the celebration on closed circuit television. Glenn Cashion spoke about Dayton’s activities at Brown, including Dayton’s term as Commodore of the Brown Sailing Club following his friend, another distinguished Brown sailor, Ted Turner. Glenn recounted, among other collegial efforts, how Dayton hosted classmates on his yacht in Newport, where he was active in the Preservation Society of Newport County. Brown was included in Dayton’s many philanthropic interests. Contributions in memory of Dayton may be made to the Brown University Class of 1963 National Scholarship. It was clear from all the various speakers that Dayton was a Renaissance man who was loved and respected and was ever true to Brown and the Class of ’63. He is happily remembered and celebrated
by his classmates.”
