BOARD MEMBER DIANA G. REARDON
Wallingford, Connecticut, November 12, 2019. Amphenol Corporation (NYSE: APH) is deeply saddened to announce the passing of its Director and retired Chief Financial Officer, Diana G. Reardon.

Adam Norwitt, President and Chief Executive Officer, said “Throughout Diana’s 31 years in the Amphenol family, she consistently helped each of us to achieve a level of greatness that collectively is reflected in Amphenol’s superior performance.

Having worked with Diana for more than 21 years, I am saddened by her passing and extend my deepest condolences to her husband, children and extended family.”
