LILLIAN MARY CAMPBELL HOWSON
(Mrs. Howard Howson)
1891 - 1946
This is our moment to speak of one who was and is
part of this company and to express our sense of
loss in the death of Lillian Mary Campbell Howson.
As a wife and mother, as a neighbor and as a meme
bar of this faculty she has shared deeply in the
life of this community, and her influence will be
felt for a long time to come. There was in her a
genuine dignity and simplicity combined with youth-
fulness and enthusiasm. The affairs of the college
and its welfare were constantly in her thought.
Younger members of the faculty could count on her
for a warm welcome and a continuing interest. Many
students found in her a confidant and comforter.
For the children, her home was a play center and a
proving ground where they were always welcome. The
children of our comunity are among those who feel
her loss most poignantly. She was a sincere friend
who gave of herself wholeheartedly. "The law of
kindness was on her tongue."
