- David Hasbrouck Van Dyck, 94, of West Hartford and Bolton Landing, New York, died peacefully on Christmas morning. The last of eight siblings, he leaves behind his wife of 69 years, Margaret (Briggs) Van Dyck, two daughters, Louise Van Dyck Shipway of Avon and Emily Van Dyck Frederick of Glastonbury, and three grandchildren, Claire Guild Frederick, James Bevier Frederick and David Emmet Shipway. David was born in Schenectady, New York. After graduating from Storm King School in Cornwall, New York, he enrolled in Union College until World War II intervened. He served on a destroyer in the U.S. Navy in the South Pacific, including battles at Leyte Gulf and Iwo Jima. After the war, he resumed his education at Union, graduating with honors in English and Economics in 1947. He then began a life-long career as a secondary school teacher and coach, at Storm King School from 1947 to 1959, and at Kingswood Oxford School from 1959 until his retirement in 1988. David's acerbic wit and encyclopedic knowledge of American and European history inspired generations of students. Services will be private. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Lake George Land Conservancy.
