• From a Princeton University alumni page (http://www.princeton.edu/~paw/archive_new/PAW05-06/03-1019/memorials.html):

EUGENE HOLLAND JR. ’44

Euie died June 24, 2005, in Kenilworth, Ill., where he’d been as active as he was at Princeton.

He was our second class president after graduation, serving from 1952 to 1956. Born and raised in Nebraska, Euie was everywhere, it seemed, at Princeton: chairman of the Daily Princetonian; president of Charter Club; chairman of Interclub and Memorial Fund Committees; on the Honor Committee; and class secretary-treasurer in our junior year, among a dozen extracurricular activities, while majoring in economics. His roommates included Dick Buenger and Pete Williams.

After graduation, Euie spent more than three years as a Navy ensign, including in the Pacific. In 36 years with Continental Bank of Illinois, he rose to executive vice president, before retiring in 1982. He was active in the Princeton Club of Chicago, was a member of the Maclean Society, served as chairman for the Chicago Business Division of the American Cancer Society, and was on the board of Evanston Hospital.

He is survived by his wife of 57 years, Martha, who noted his pride in Princeton; three daughters, Diane Drewry, Susan Boyd, and Jean Holland; son Randall; and five grandchildren. Another son, Robert, and his brother, Larry ’42, predeceased him. Our deep condolences go to all. The Class of 1944.
