Howland died on Dec. 31, 2015, in Santa Monica, California, after a battle with lung cancer, husband Charles Kimbrough told the New York Times, noting that his wife did not want a memorial or funeral service.

“It was the Boston side of her personality coming out,” Kimbrough said. “She didn’t want to make a fuss.”

He echoed the statement to the Associated Press, telling the news outlet that having no announcement or funeral was Howland’s choice.

Although she had died back in December, the news of her death was not to be released because of her personal request. What seems like old news, is old but new. Rest in peace Vera Gorman.
