Clifford Boivin, age 90, was presented the cane made by Alan Boulet of Landaff. Boivin came from Gorham, NH to Lisbon and taught “shop” at Lisbon High School. He then taught for a brief time at Littleton High School before starting a career as Sales Manager at New England Wire Technologies.

Sally passed away in 2014.  L-R: Dorothy Wiggins, LAHS President, daughter Micci (Boivin) Freyenhagen and husband Ed Freyenhagen, Clifford Boivin, daughter Jacci (Boivin) Vienneau, granddaughter Danielle Vienneau, and Judith Boulet, LAHS Trustee.

PRESENTING LISBON'S BOSTON POST CANE TO THE OLDEST RESIDENT

We presented Lisbon’s Boston Post Cane to the Town’s oldest resident, Priscilla Locke, age 95, at her apartment at the Lisbon Inn on August 27, 2024, just one week before Priscilla’s passing. Priscilla and her husband Robert moved from their Monroe home to the Lisbon Inn in 2014. They were married for 71 years at the time of Robert’s passing in November of 2019. Priscilla enjoyed her apartment and visiting with the other Lisbon Inn residents, but her greatest joy was spending time with her family members. Front (L-R) Dorothy Wiggins, LAHS President, Priscilla Locke. Back: Priscilla’s children Alan Locke, Sandy Lang, and Cyndy Hutchins. Son Ernie Locke was not present.
