Subject: Remembering Linda Howard ’70
October 5, 2023
Dear ºìÌÒÊÓƵ community,
I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Linda Howard ’70. Linda made indelible changes here at ºìÌÒÊÓƵ, from creating the first Renn Fayre in 1968 to serving on the Alumni Board for nine years, and as a ºìÌÒÊÓƵ trustee for a remarkable 34 years. Her passionate dedication to ºìÌÒÊÓƵ and her focus on equity made her the clear choice for honoree as the first-ever Babson Society Outstanding Volunteer Award in 1987.
Linda gave generously to ºìÌÒÊÓƵ not only in her financial support, but also of her time, energy, and wisdom. I personally benefited from her wise counsel and conversation. Please read more about Linda’s lasting impact on ºìÌÒÊÓƵ here.
I am forever grateful to Linda for her contributions to ºìÌÒÊÓƵ and to the wider world. My deepest condolences to all who knew and loved her.
Sincerely,
Audrey
