Hugh Walter Lefkowitz ’52 passed away on January 16, 2016, in New Jersey and was buried with military honors at the Brig. William C. Doyle Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Wrightstown, New Jersey. Hugh served in the U.S. Army during the Korean conflict after graduating from Dartmouth.

He is survived by son Matthew.
