We are saddened to learn of the passing of John R. Howe. John was a former printer for the Pawtucket Times and the Providence Journal. He honorably served in the US Army. After he retired, he operated the Looff Carousel in Slater Park from 1997 to 2024. The summers won't be the same without you, John. On behalf of the Friends of the Looff Carousel at Slater Park, our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this time.
