In Memoriam
Longtime lifetime learner Herbert Hadley George died on March 1, 2010, of natural causes at his home in Helena at the age of 98. After a long career in the legal profession, he discovered the treasure house of liberal arts that is Carroll College. This he explored in all its width and depth for the final 25 years of his life. He was especially pleased that an Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree was conferred upon him by Carroll College in 2001. He was a beloved and welcome presence on Carroll's campus, and he will be missed. For more on his life, read: http://www.helenair.com/
