Lynne D. (Friedgen) Howlett, 65, of North Grafton, MA, died peacefully with her family on Saturday, July 28, 2018 in Care Dimensions Hospice House, Lincoln, MA.
She is survived by her husband of forty-four years, Michael J. Howlett of Worcester; her children, Jeffrey M. Howlett and Christina M. Howlett-Perez, both of Woburn; grandchildren, Joelle, Jace and Jacob; mother Dorothy R. (Markiewicz) Friedgen of North Grafton; brothers, Dale E. Friedgen of Shrewsbury and Dean A. Friedgen of Fort Meyers, FL. She is predeceased by her father, Arthur H. Friedgen and a brother Wayne Friedgen. Born in Nebraska, she graduated from North High School in Worcester, MA.
Lynne worked as a dispatch operator for Phillips Lifeline Company for 7 years. She was an avid lover of the Nebraska Cornhuskers and Patriots football teams. Lynne loved to travel far and wide; her favorite place was Arizona and felt most at home in the heat! Lynne will be remembered as happy, who always had a smile on her face, even when times were tough. She had a quiet strength and an optimism that carried her through, until God called her home.
Services were private. HENRY-DIRSA FUNERAL HOME, 33 Ward Street, Worcester is assisting the family with arrangements.
