Mr. Grubb worked here as a civilian aeronautical engineer with the Navy 
Department from 1945 until he retired in 1969.  
He then worked as a structural engineer for the Fairfax County department 
of environment management from 1969 until he retired a second time and

Mr. Grubb was born in Newport News, Va., and earned an engineering degree 
at St. Louis University. He moved here in 1945.  
Mr. Grubb was a charter member of the Springfield Golf and Country Club

He is survived by his wife, Frances, and a son, William S., of the home in
