1920s
Harry Brockington, C&F'25, of Southampton, New Jersey, was honored
by the town's mayor, U.S. Representative James Saxton, and more than 250
local officials and well-wishers from his retirement community of LeisureTowne
on the occasion of his 100th birthday on March 28. Mayor James F. Young
Jr. declared it "Harry Brockington Day." Brockington, a retired
accountant, has seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren, with
two more on the way. He told the Philadelphia Daily News he has no plans
to work in the foreseeable future. "I'm completely retired,"
he said. "Taking care of the house is enough for me."
