LANSING LAMONT

Among his many charitable and public-spirited enterprises, Lansing Lamont was an enthusiastic supporter of the Poetry and Farnsworth Rooms in the Lamont Library, Harvard University, Cambridge Massachusetts. My former husband and colleague, Stratis Haviaras (dec.) was ever grateful for his contributions and for his visits to us at Lamont. He would want to be able to say so, here. With best wishes, Heather Cole Librarian of the Lamont Library 1977-2008

My condolences to all the Lamonts and the Wolcotts too! So sorry for your loss. Xo

I send my love to the entire Lamont family and am thinking of
them. I have many fond memories of spending my summers on Sky Farm. Uncle Lans was the best! He was always so much
fun! He wore jazzy shirts,shorts, and socks! He drove a cool little sports car he called "the spit fire" . He adored Aunt Ada! I always loved to hear him play the piano and sing. When he walked into a room you were sure to have fun! My parents Brad and Anne Richardson loved him! He will greatly be missed!

Mr. Lamont was a generous friend of the Lamont Library, favoring the kind of preventive care that keeps books circulating to the undergraduates, particularly, of Harvard College. We were honored by his visits.

With condolences to his family,

Heather Cole

I will so miss his gleaming shirt and smile welcoming me at the Sky Farm tea.....my thoughts are with you all.

I was just writing him a letter when I heard of his death. A fine writer and researcher, Day of Trinity is a classic work. He lived an interesting life.

I knew Lance many, many years ago in the age of youthful promise! He was so bright and full of life! I have always remembered with fondness those days before we came of age. My deepest condolences to his family in the days ahead.

I will miss; a good tennis partner, a wonderful neighbor, and a great man. I hope that he is up golfing with my boys! Love and fond memories, Tony Carey

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your wonderful father and husband. I always remember him fondly both growing up in Washington as a neighbor, and in North Haven. He was a terrific person and will be remembered by us all.
