Walter Robertson Milbourne, ’76, died at the age of eighty-nine, survived by his wife of fifty-seven years, Sue Dyer Milbourne, four children and ten grandchil- dren. Walter earned his undergraduate degree at Prince- ton and his law degree at Harvard.
Robert J. Muldoon, Jr., ’82, was eighty-five when he passed on July 4, 2022. Bob attended Boston College Law, becoming the rarest of birds, a quadruple Eagle (counting degrees conferred by BC while he was in the seminary). Bob clerked for the Hon. Paul G. Kirk at the SJC of Massachusetts before embarking on his career in Boston. Bob met Barbara Mooney in 1966; they mar- ried two years later and raised three children. As a Dad, Bob had a tendency to quote from King Lear, particu- larly on long car rides. “How sharper than a serpent’s tooth is an ungrateful child!” Bob was a man of many interests: He made doughnuts, bread, and brownies from scratch; his “Daddy Bob’s Pancakes” recipe is just- ly famous. He loved both the Texaco Radio Opera and the Hillbilly at Harvard show. He read history, myster- ies, and P.G. Wodehouse voraciously. In his later years, Bob enjoyed the company of his grandsons, both of whom he called “Old Boy,” even as infants. “It’s a poor heart that never rejoices!” was Bob’s mantra whenever an opportunity for indulgence occurred.
Gardner Marshall Mundy, ’85, a lifelong resident of the Roanoke Valley, passed away on October 31, 2022 at age eighty-eight. Marshall attended the Virginia Military Institute, where he played basketball, graduating in 1956 with a BA in English. He served as a first lieutenant in the U.S. Army for two years. In 1962, he graduated from the University of Virginia Law School, where he was executive director of the law review. Appalled by the racial segregation he witnessed in his youth, Marshall was an ardent supporter of the civil rights movement. He embraced feminism and founded and coached a girls’ basketball team at Crystal Spring Elementary, at a time when there were few organized sports for girls. Marshall practiced law for fifty-four years. He did criminal defense work and would bring Thanksgiving dinner to clients serving time in jail. He loved using his legal skills to help people but was not
above small personal infractions. For many years, he had a bookie he called on Fridays, to place minor wagers on
sports games. He had a series of unreliable used Jaguars, and an arrangement with a car mechanic
who would provide him with
free auto repair in return for free
legal representation. It was never
clear who got the better end of that
deal. In his younger days, Marshall was
an avid tennis player, and ran the New York City and Roanoke marathons. He owned dogs and cats, donkeys, parrots and peacocks. Marshall is survived by his wife, Monika, four children and five grandchildren.
Mark Nye, ’91, passed away on July 17, 2022 at the age of seventy-six. A past president of the Idaho State Bar and an Idaho State Legislator, Mark was born in New York, raised in Idaho, schooled in Boston (Har- vard), and graduated law school at the University of Idaho. The seven-year gap between his undergrad and law degrees in 1967 and 1974 suggests he may have served in the military or peace corps or some other no- ble endeavor; or perhaps he simply took a few years off in Sun Valley. Mark loved the outdoors, skiing, golf and fishing. He flew his own plane and traveled with family and friends as much as time would allow. Mark was preceded in death by a son and survived by his wife Eva, three children and four grandchildren.
Terrence O’Sullivan, ’98, died peacefully on August 19, 2022, survived by his wife of forty years, Corey Simp- son, his two daughters and two grandsons. Terry grew up as part of a warm and lively family in Campbellford Ontario, where he played hockey, baseball and pranks. Terry practiced law for almost fifty years, building a sto- ried career and legacy of mentorship. Terry generously gave his time and leadership talents to many good causes including the Advocates’ Society, the Women’s College Hospital Foundation, Toronto Rehab Institute, and Sunnybrook Health Sciences Foundation where he vol- unteered for many years, even after his cancer diagnosis.
