It had been a long time since I last saw Howie when we were in the printing and publishing business together. While surfing the net to find him just to reconnect after all these years, I found out on his son's website that he had passed away. I was so saddened to find out that I was too late. My thoughts and prayers go out to Sue and to David and the rest of his family. While I knew him, he was a good friend and always honest and I will always remember him.
