Dr. Krimsley, who died at the age of fifty-seven, had been a member of the New York Psychoanalytic Institute since 1952 and Assistant Director of its Treatment Center from 1961 until shortly before his death. During the Second World War, he served in the Army as a Captain and was awarded the Bronze Star for outstanding bravery under fire. In the last five years of his life he was seriously ill and lived under constant restrictions, but he fully mastered the great trials of this illness and lived with graciousness and joy. He is mourned by his wife and daughter, as well as by his many close friends.
