      Obituary: Richard Stockton Rush

      1923 - Richard Stockton Rush died on December 25, 1981 in Monterey, California. Born on July 14, 1905, the son of Mary Wheeler and Benjamin Rush, he entered St. Paul's in 1918. He held memberships in the Library Association, the Concordian Literary Society and was associate head editor of the "Horae Scholasticae." In athletics, he played Old Hundred football, hockey and ran track in the spring. He also served on the executive committee of the Squash Racquets Association. From SPS, he went on to Princeton with the class of 1927. During World War 11, he was commissioned a lieutenant commander in the U. S. Navy Reserve and served as an air intelligence officer on the U.S.S. Hornet in the Pacific.

      During a long career as an insurance executive, he was a vice president of The Insurance Company of North America, executive vice president of the Providence Washington Insurance Company, and president of the Dana Likely Insurance Company of Rochester, New York. He was a direct descendant of two signers of the Declaration of Independence, Richard Stockton of New Jersey and Dr. Benjamin Rush, a Philadelphia doctor who is considered the father of psychiatry. His hobbies included painting, of which he sold a few, and horticulture. Surviving are his wife, Genemarie Rush; two sons, Richard Stockton Rush, Jr. and Lockwood Rush; a brother, Dr. Alexander Rush '29; and four grandchildren.
