Elizabeth McGraw Webster

Elizabeth “Lisa” McGraw Webster, 88, died Saturday June 28, 2014 at her home in Sun Valley, Idaho.

Born in New York City to Elizabeth Murtland Woodwell and Curtis Whittlesey McGraw. Lisa was a long time resident of Princeton, New Jersey.

She attended Miss Fine’s School, Foxcroft, and Finch College.

In the summer of 2011, Lisa made a difficult emotional decision, due to being a “Princeton girl” at heart, to move her residence to Idaho, where she had maintained houses in the Sun Valley area for decades. She still was able to make a few trips to visit Princeton after that, but lived the rest of her years being able to see the beautiful mountains of Idaho and to enjoy the summer skating programs.

Lisa’s great passions were figure skating and her beloved Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. She was very active in the figure skating world and supported many promising skaters some of whom became Olympic, national, and international champions.

Lisa is survived by her daughters, Lisette Stoltzfus Edmond and Marian Stoltzfus Paen and her son Curtis McGraw Webster, their spouses, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.

A memorial service will be held at Nassau Presbyterian Church in Princeton, New Jersey on Saturday July 26, 2014 at 11 a.m.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to: Hospice and Palliative Care of The Wood River Valley, P. O. Box 4320, Sun Valley, ID 83340 or SAVE, A Friend to Homeless Animals, 900 Herrontown Road, Princeton, NJ 08540.

William J. Bolger

William J. (Bill) Bolger died peacefully in Princeton on June 25, 2014 at the age of 88. A dedicated, wise, and generous husband, father, family man, and friend, he lived a long and fulfilling life. Bill was predeceased by his parents, John and Coby Bolger of Sewickley, Pa., and by his first wife of 53 years, Eugenie Claire Wagner. Bill was a graduate of Northfield-Mount Hermon prep school in 1944. With the nation still at war, he enlisted in the Navy’s V-12 training program. This led him to Princeton University from which he graduated in 1948. He went on to enjoy a diverse and successful career in general management and commercial real estate, consulting before starting his own consulting firm, which he continued until his retirement.

He enjoyed challenges, family gatherings, clever jokes, a good debate, old friends, a smart game of cards, travel, the stock market, suspense novels, and more. Bill was a provider: he looked after those he loved and helped many people without attaching strings or seeking attention, and was always guided by his integrity.

He is survived by his second wife, Eva Heidmann; his two sons Stephen (Lillian Laserson) and Bruce (Shawn Sparks); grandchildren Kate, Chris, and Elizabeth; Eva’s daughters Sofia Ardalan and Lily (John) Scott; siblings Betty (Robert) Fleming, David, Barbara (William) Collett, and Daniel (Linda) Bolger, and many nephews and nieces. He lives on in the many ways he positively touched so many people and in the memories of his rich and spontaneous personality.

Services will be held on July 14, 2014 at Trinity Church in Princeton at 1 p.m., followed by a reception at the Nassau Club. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Nature Conservancy.
