PITTSFIELD, Mass. (UPI) -- Services will be tomorrow for Caleb Roosevelt, 19, the great grandson of President Theodore Roosevelt, who died Thursday at Berkshire Medical Center of injuries he received in a car crash.

Roosevelt was driving his BMW car last Friday in New Marlboro when he lost control at an intersection, police said.

A passenger in the car, Andrew Costerus, 18, of Marion, Mass., is in critical condition at the medical center. Both men were students at Simons Rock Bard College, an experimental school in Great Barrington offering college courses to pre-college age students.

Roosevelt, who made his home in Sandersfield and New York City, was the son of composer J. Willard Roosevelt, and the great grandson of Joseph Willard, the U.S. ambassador to Spain.
