John C. Cushman III, a member of Cushman & & Wakefield's founding household, passed away May 4 at age 82.
The business property brokerage heralded his 60-year profession, calling Cushman a "tradition in organization" and a "crucial pillar in Cushman & & Wakefield's history."
The family in a statement composed that Cushman passed away peacefully. His spouse of almost 60 years, Jeanine, his two bros, 4 boys, their partners and all 10 grandchildren had the ability to be with him prior to his death.
" John's successes in commercial real estate were exceptionally noteworthy however his favorable impact on numerous professions are what mattered to him even more," the family composed. "John always valued the importance of returning and was a staunch supporter of many philanthropic efforts. His contributions to numerous companies will contribute to his legacy."
According to his biography, Cushman, as president of the Westerns Region in 1965, was accountable for 60% of the company's offices in the United States. The brokerage, established in 1917 in
New York by brothers-in-law J. Clydesdale Cushman and Bernard Wakefield, would broaden under Cushman's direction when he headed west in 1967, opening a department in
Los Angeles.
He and twin bro Louis B. Cushman would go on to open Cushman Corp. Real estate in 1978, which grew to 11 U.S. workplaces from 2 with more than 200 employees. Cushman Realty merged with Cushman & & Wakefield in 2001.
Louis Cushman now works as a vice chairman in Cushman & & Wakefield's
Houston workplace, which he established. John's boy, Jeff Cushman, is a vice chair in Cushman & & Wakefield's
San Jose workplace.
The family stated those who want to honor Cushman III's life need to check out a national park site or make a donation to the National Park Foundation on his behalf.
