Former longtime leader of The Toro Company in the US, David Lilly died on the 12th February at the age of 96, unexpectedly but peacefully, his family told the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
A St. Paul, Minnesota, native, David Lilly graduated from the St. Paul Academy and went on to receive a degree from Dartmouth College in 1939, according to the paper's report. He spent a brief period with the U.S. Treasury Department in Washington, D.C., before enlisting in the army in 1942.
Upon his return to St. Paul, Lilly invested in Bloomington-based The Toro Company, where he worked as president from 1945 until he retired in 1978.
According to the Star Tribune, Lilly went back to Washington to work as a Governor of the Federal Reserve Board before returning to Minnesota and taking on the role of dean at the University of Minnesota’s School of Management.
While at the university, Lilly was appointed vice president for finance and operations before retiring in 1992 at the age of 75, the Minneapolis newspaper reported.
