Correction: Jean Rosequist Howlett ’47, who is alive, is not the late wife of Allen Howlett, as was reported in the Summer 2004 issue. The error was an editor’s, not the class secretary’s. “My deceased wife was Jean Grovo Howlett, a native of Auburn, Maine,” wrote Allen, who sent along a wonderful photo of Jean in cap and gown, taken in 1983 when she graduated with high honors from college, at age 54. Despite caring for her disabled husband, Elizabeth Dyer Haskell finds time to volunteer at the local library and museum, and sing in two choirs. She also serves as a town cemetery commissioner…. Samuel Sawyer still practices dentistry at age 84. Five children, seven grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren!
