George Durenberger dies at age 90. He served as the athletic director at St. John's University for 41 years.

George Durenberger first visited St. John's University in Collegeville, Minn., in 1924 when he enrolled as a freshman. He was still there nearly five decades later - after a career of playing, coaching and promoting athletics and physical fitness.

Durenberger, 90, the school's athletic director for 41 years, died Thursday in St. Cloud. He was the father of David Durenberger, former U.S. senator from Minnesota.

The elder Durenberger wore a variety of hats at the school, many simultaneously. As a player, he was the school's first athlete to be named all-conference for three years in football, and lettered four years in basketball.

After graduating, he became head basketball coach, an assistant in football and a staff member of the Liturgical Press. At age 25 he was named athletic director while also acting as head coach at various times in football, basketball and track. He also taught physical education courses and was an English and business instructor at St. John's prep school.

He also found time to get a master's degree from the University of Minnesota and serve in civic and church organizations.

In the late 1950s he was a member of the state advisory committee to the U.S. Civil Rights Commission, the President's White House Youth Commission and the Governor's Committee on Physical Fitness.

"He was one of the first to advocate physical fitness for all students, not just the ballplayers," said his wife, Isabelle. "He was always saying, 'A healthy body promotes a healthy mind.' And he promoted physical fitness for the women at St. Ben's, too." The College of St. Benedict is a companion school to St. John's. Durenberger and his wife spent much of their time in Florida after he retired in 1972.

Besides his wife, he is survived by three sons, David, of Minneapolis and Washington, D.C; George Mark, of Eden Prairie, and Thomas, of Cottage Grove; two daughters, Constance Kneip, of Sussex, Wis., and Mary McLeod, of Dallas; nine grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.

Services will be held at 10:30 a.m. Monday at St. John's Abbey Church in Collegeville, with visitation at 9 a.m.
