He left us with a great legacy in that regard, much as he has left the world with many great theaters by which we may remember him and his work. He is missed.鈥� George is survived by his wife, Karen Holm Howard 鈥�51; his son; and his daughter, Tamara. A second son predeceased him.

Paul Gottlieb Hafner ’34

Paul Gottlieb Hafner 鈥�34, September 15, 2011, in Longview, Washington, after a prolonged illness. Paul鈥檚 parents came to Portland from Germany and Switzerland. His father was minister of the First German Reformed Church for 50 years, and the family home next to the church building is still known as Hafner House. In an interview in 2010, Paul said that automobiles were a rarity on Portland streets during his childhood, which made it possible for him to sled from the West Hills into downtown Portland in winter and play baseball in the streets in summer. He walked to school, including to Lincoln High School. 鈥淚 was not particularly inspired as a student in the first years. The last two years, I took chemistry with Miss Emma Griebel. It was really the thing that got me interested in chemistry, and she was the one who inspired me to go to Reed.鈥�

Paul commuted from Southwest Portland to the college with the help of Mark Rosumny 鈥�34 and an old Model T. 鈥淲hen we got to Ross Island Bridge, you know, there鈥檚 quite an incline there from west to east, and the old Ford could barely make it to the top. So, being chemists, we knew about certain things, among which was benzene. We would get a few hundred ccs of benzene and put them in the little old Ford Model T, and that thing would take off! We鈥檇 pass everything on the bridge.鈥� Paul recounted other events related to his study of chemistry at Reed, when the fourth floor of Eliot Hall was devoted to science and included student laboratories, a stockroom, a lecture room, a library, and an office for Ralph Kempton Strong [chemistry 1920鈥�34]. 鈥淏eing in the attic, the chemistry labs didn鈥檛 have many windows; they had little dormers facing out onto the campus. In each dormer was a table where students would study. This is important because Dr. Strong lived in Eastmoreland, about five or six blocks from the school, and he would walk to school every morning about 8:42陆. He always had his black umbrella and he had a measured stride. We had sentinels out in the dormers to let us know when 鈥榯he boss鈥� was coming so that everything was in order by the time he arrived . . . . He was very strict and there was no monkey business up there. You almost trembled in his presence, because you would ask a question, and then he would clear his throat and say, 鈥楧id you look it up?鈥� I think the thing that I learned from Dr. Strong was the ability to study and look up things for myself.鈥� Overall Reed was a tremendous experience that allowed him to move confidently into graduate school. He earned an MA in biochemistry and an MD from the University of Oregon, specializing in orthopedic surgery.

Carolyn Louise Holzman ’77

Carolyn Louise Holzman 鈥�77, August 5, 2011 in Portland, from sudden and unexpected cardiac arrest. Carolyn came to Reed in 1973 to escape Houston, Texas. She was a typical Reedie in many ways. It was her character, rather more than her intention, that drove her to shun convention: there was always some more interesting, more engaging and creative, funnier and more passionate way to make or perceive something, anything. In fall 1973, she began hanging out in the commons鈥� basement pinball and pool hall, avoiding papers and professors and seizing the opportunity to meet and play with other escapees. She met Chris Cooksy 鈥�78 over rounds of eight ball and High Hand. Inseparable since spring 1974, they were married in 1981. True to her whimsical, idiosyncratic vision and unable (or unwilling) to harness it to serve Reed requirements, Carolyn left the college鈥攁fter some fits and starts鈥攊n 1977 to join the Portland Mime Workshop. The rigorous physical and technical training in Decroux and Grotowski methods combined with freewheeling improvisational theatre that she first encountered there informed her work ever after. She attended L鈥櫭塩ole de Mime de Montr茅al in 1981 and received a BA from Portland State University in 1996, receiving the Kellogg Award for outstanding senior in English. A founding member of both Portland Mime Theater and DoJump! Movement Theatre, she shifted gradually from performing to teaching. She taught widely in the Portland area, most notably as adjunct professor of theatre at PSU from 1984 until her death. Dancers learned to act and actors to move under Carolyn鈥檚 guidance. She was a master in the weaving of many disciplines into integrated, magical, sly, or slapstick-funny, complex but comprehensible theatre. Her students and colleagues remember her as a brilliant artist and generous and insightful mentor who nurtured any creative spark into a flame.

Carolyn created works of physical theatre, including adaptations of short stories by Gogol (鈥淭he Nose鈥�) and Dostoevsky (鈥淲hite Nights鈥�), which she wrote, directed, and produced, not to mention designing the costumes, set, and stage. While her professional life was focused on theatre, she was also a nonpareil vegetable gardener and fruit orchardist, house renovator (showing a rare talent in both tilework and real estate), metalworker, pianist, Scrabble player, and house rabbit lover. At Centennial Reunions Carolyn and Chris reunited with a few out-of-town friends who had slipped away somewhere in the decades. For this reconnection all will be forever grateful. Immediately picking up conversations and jokes where we left off so long ago, we planned future gatherings. We never dreamed that this would be our last chance to celebrate life with Carolyn. She leaves scores of people, in Portland, and all over the world, bewildered and heartbroken. If you have stories you remember about her days at Reed or after, please share them with Chris. Telling and hearing these stories will keep Carolyn with us, as she should be. Reed thanks Chris Cooksy, Meg Riley 鈥�77, Rebecca Smith 鈥�79, and Jim Pearson 鈥�79, who created this memorial to Carolyn.

After attending public schools in town, Carroll went to Beacon School in Massachusetts and then came to Reed. Financial support for his first year came from his uncle Hunt Hendrickson, father of Ames B. Hendrickson 鈥�48, who lived in Portland, and who introduced Carroll to many aspects of Portland society. Carroll鈥檚 roommate was Jack Dudman 鈥�42, and other college friends included Sam McCall 鈥�42, his twin sister, Jean McCall Babson 鈥�42, Florence Walls Lehman 鈥�42, Hallie Rice 鈥�45, and Carl Stevens 鈥�42 [also professor of economics 1954-90].

He was less interested in majoring in a subject, he confessed in an interview in 2005, and more interested in getting a good education, which he found at Reed. Carroll enjoyed the social life at the college, attending formal dances; hiking and skiing; singing with the Boar鈥檚 Head Ensemble, the Madrigals, and the Glee Club; and listening to music in Capehart. An accomplished pianist, Carroll found the venture into vocal groups very satisfying. He memorized the score of Gilbert & Sullivan鈥檚 Trial by Jury in his room in Winch, in order to perform it in spring 1942 and lose no time for work on his thesis. (Carroll played piano throughout his life, preferring duets, chamber music, show tunes, and popular music of World War II.) He also attended local concerts and opera. Through music, he became friends with Jacob Avshalomov 鈥�43 and Doris Felde Avshalomov 鈥�43. To earn money for college expenses past the first year, Carroll worked in the Commons at 40垄 an hour, including summers. One year, Miss Brownlie [Ann R. 1930鈥�43] gave him the job of supervising the storage room in exchange for room and board. (鈥淚n my Navy years, I was thankful for remembering the manner in which she wrote out job descriptions and trained us. Most people don鈥檛 go to Reed for that!鈥�) At meetings of the Young People鈥檚 Fellowship Trinity Episcopal Church in northwest Portland, Carroll became better acquainted with Margaret M. Doane 鈥�42. After Reed, Carroll served in the U.S. Navy and sent Margie a marriage proposal from Funafuti in the Ellis Islands. They married in 1944. During the war, Carroll was engaged in a number of invasions as a watch officer and navigator in the amphibious forces in the central Pacific. (He remained in the naval reserves, retiring as a lieutenant commander.) After the war, Carroll and Margie moved to Frederick. Carroll was determined to be the sole support for his family and went to work at Hendrickson鈥檚, 鈥渁n old-fashioned, middle-of-the-road store鈥� established in 1877 by his grandfather. He was assistant manager and buyer and assumed ownership of the store in 1967. 鈥淏y that time, Hendrickson鈥檚 was the last independent store of our type in downtown Frederick.鈥� He operated the store for 13 years and made a lot of money, he said, going out of business. Carroll did volunteer work for the archives of the Episcopal Diocese of Maryland, the Maryland Historical Society, the Historical Society of Frederick County, and the archives of All Saints Church in Frederick, where he also was a member of the vestry and choir and a Sunday school teacher. He assisted the Frederick city orchestra and joined the board of the Baltimore Symphony, rising to the position of board president. 鈥淎ll during the time I was trying to run the store, I鈥檇 also go into Baltimore to help plan the programs, until I鈥檇 gotten to know everybody on their staff, all the musicians. I got to associate with some of the best musicians in the country.鈥� He served as director of concert development in 1980鈥�87. In retirement, Carroll also traveled, making 17 trips to Europe and 22 transcontinental trips. When his travels concluded, he continued to drive locally, especially to the local community college, where he found books for his own 鈥渉omemade鈥� English or French courses. Carroll stayed in touch with Ames, Ellie Boettiger Seagraves 鈥�49 and Van Seagraves 鈥�48; he gardened, and played piano for residents in his retirement home in Frederick. Margie died in 2003 and a daughter died in 2011. Survivors include a daughter and son, three grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren.

Summers, he worked on wheat ranches run by his Montana family. Money was tight, but Millard was offered a scholarship at Reed in return for working as a janitor in the library. Though he was interested in physics, and adept in mathematics, he was unable to pay for lab fees, and turned instead to the social sciences. (Having conversed often with his grandfather about the politics and economics of the time, he had confidence in pursuing a degree in this field.) After the fall semester of his junior year, Millard withdrew from Reed and got a job as a bridge carpenter on the Southern Pacific Railroad. That fall, he married Helen F. Wheeler 鈥�39, whom he had met in the contemporary society class taught by Prof. George Noble [political science 1922鈥�48].

After Helen got her degree in general literature at Reed, she began teaching English and PE in Halfway, Oregon, while Millard worked with Noble to earn his BA in political science.

Millard鈥檚 poor eyesight kept him from military service. Prof. Robert Terrill [economics 1937鈥�44] and Prof. Victor Chittick [English 1921鈥�48] supported his application for a Stanford fellowship in economics in 1941. Before long, he was teaching statistics to econ majors there. In 1944, he was invited to join the Statistical Research Group at Columbia University鈥攁 contract agency engaged in classified research related to the war effort. For 12 years, he worked as a research associate with the National Bureau of Economic Research in New York, and with Helen鈥檚 encouragement, he studied for a PhD in economics at Columbia. During this time he taught at the Baruch School of the City College of New York. In 1958, he joined the School of Economics and Business at Washington State College (University), where he taught until he retired as professor emeritus in 1981. He also was a fellow of the American Statistical Association. In retirement, the couple lived for a time on Case Inlet of Puget Sound, near Helen鈥檚 family鈥攖hree of whom had attended Reed (Margaret 鈥�26, George 鈥�29, and Donald 鈥�35). Dancing had been a major social activity for them from the time they were at Reed, and they continued to do square and round dancing into their 70s. They also traveled with family, including sons Laird and Drew. Helen died in 2009. Survivors include their sons and four granddaughters. 鈥淣o college can train a student for his lifetime career,鈥� Millard wrote. 鈥淎ll it can do is give him a foundation in knowledge and thought processes that will permit him to grow and adjust. Reed does that job very well.鈥�

Richard Havel ’46

Richard鈥檚 groundbreaking research on lipid metabolism and lipoprotein biology profoundly impacted the understanding of human disease. Considered a founding father in the field, he refined and optimized the methodology for separating good cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein, [HDL]) from bad cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein [LDL]), and for recognizing the role that the different fractions of lipoproteins play in heart disease. Lipoproteins are tiny, sac-like complexes of lipid and protein that carry fats, such as cholesterol and triglycerides, in the blood. LDL is rich in cholesterol and is believed to deposit cholesterol in the arteries, while HDL seems to prevent fat deposits.

In 1955, Dick developed a method for separating lipoproteins from human plasma, a technique that is the basis for all separation methods in use today. His paper of that year on the lipoproteins in human serum, published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, remains among the most cited publications in the field of lipid biology. He also conducted some of the first studies demonstrating that lowering LDL cholesterol in the blood led to a reduction of atherosclerosis.
