It is 2024.
If the family and loved one of Howie Hiller coma across this addition, my hope is thos will cheer you.
I was very young amd an inexperienced traveler.
I met Howie in Nebaj Guatemala in the thick of a secret, long, and brutal civil war.
It was just before Christmas of 1979 and new years of 1980 in that beautiful mountain village.
Several disparate travelers, Howard among us, were staying at a guesthouse hosted by three sisters through the holidays.
The group of is from all over the globe formed a friendship and memorable hikes and time together.
We shared uprorous laughter and stories at our meals.
I was a young student. When Howard learned Id recently been robbed of what little funds I had, he unhesitatingly insisted on giving me funds to help me complete my journey back home.
There was no reason for him to know I would honor his generosity and return his kindness. He did this because this is who he was.
Eventually I was able to send this repayment to him at Yale.
I will never be able to repay what he taught me, though much more valuable;
A lifetime lesson in kindness and humanity.
I think of him and he reminds me to carry it forward.
Blessings to your family.

The news of Howard's death is very saddening. We were junior colleagues in the Columbia math department; Howard was one of the people who made that such an exciting place. I send my condolences, delayed as they are, to his family.

I am saddened to learn of Howard's death. I knew him about the time he got his PhD from MIT, studying under Daniel Quillen, the founder of the field of algebraic K-theory. I have referred to Howard's paper on Adams operations on K-groups multiple times for the important results contained in it, as have other mathematicians. Howard was a fine mathematician and will be missed. My belated condolences to the family.

I met Howard when he had first moved to New Haven and was eager to uncover everything interesting, exciting and fun to do. He was incredibly quick to understand people, to get them to smile, to find out what he could learn, and how he could be a friend. As others have mentioned, he was so versatile---a teacher, a scholar, an artist. What I remember most though, is how much he expected of himself...I know it stimulated me to appreciate what I have, to take advantage of opportunities life offers, and to live life to its fullest. I only hope he knew how much his friendship meant to me. My deepest belated condolences to all family and friends.

I am in shock to read this, and send my sympathies to his family and all of his frieds on his passing.
I knew Howard quote well through High School in Canarsie, where we shared many classes and activities. Howard was the counter-culture iconoclast of the Class of 1970, way ahead of his time. Only someone as brilliant as Howard could have dressed as he did, wore his hair as long as he did (before it was fashionable), and spoken out about injustice and inequity as forecefully as he did.
He was a leader and a friend, who I unfortunately lost contact with after graduation. This is very sad news, and the world is a little poorer for his passing.

I just found out about Howard's death, and it was a shock. I attended Canarsie High School (and Cornell) with Howie, and we were in most of the same classes in high school. I remember his self-deprecating sense of humor (in our yearbook he was listed as Best Dressed Boy). Once, he and I were riding together on the subway, having an eyebrow war. I lost touch with him after college, but I always thought he would go on to do something brilliant. Apparently, he did.

I just learned of your loss, Barbara. I'm so sorry.
My heart goes out to you and your family.
Its been a long time since our days at Risley, but know that if you visit the San Francisco Bay area, I would like to give a hug in person.
Wishing you and your family all the best during this difficult time.

I would like to send my sympathy and best wishes to everybody who knew and loved Howard.I was friends with him when he came to study in Oxford.We discovered the city together.He was quite amazing,as he found time to study Shakespeare,attend the plays,and do his Mathematics.He went though a phase of baking apple crumble,every meal!
He adored all his family,with best wishes to you all at this very sad time.

Geoff, Howie's brother, tells the story of Howie attending a philosophy lecture (on Wittgenstein) at UCLA. May I add one thing to Geoff's account? In Howie's version (as I recall it), Howie goes up to the professor afterward and the two get into a heavy discussion, at the end of which the professor says, "I take it you're a graduate student." Howie's reply: "I'm a junior in high school." . . . A memory of Howie from his Cornell days: at Risley, the dorm where he lived and ate, a ponytailed Howie in Levi jacket sitting back at the end of a meal with a stack of seven plates in front of him and his wiry self looking none the worse. The enormous meal was a nightly stunt he explained with a simple rule: "No liquids." . . . Howie was a coiner of thumbnail rules. "It's a bad idea to stand still in New York," he said one day while watching a panhandler harass some guy who was waiting for a bus. Howie was my closest pal in New York when I lived there with my wife, Karen, in the 1980s. We saw each other or talked on the phone almost daily for about five years. It was the last time in both our lives, I think, when we had the leisure for that kind of friendship. I realize now (now more than ever) how lucky I was that our two paths crossed.

Howie does occupy a special place in my heart even though we were only very loosely in touch in recent years. I met Howie the second day of freshman orientation. We remained constant companions
throughout our four years at Cornell and a bit beyond. We even marched together at graduation. Essentially we grew into adults together.
I loved his quickness and sparkle when he was engaged in whatever he was passionate about. I remember him solving math problems on any piece of paper, even on paper napkins. He'd get so excited. Sometimes he'd try to explain it to me. Other times he would simply nod his head and stroke his beard as he was pondering a problem. As others have written he could be so kind and gentle. I am so grateful to have known him. I will truly miss him.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Barbara, Ben and Evan and to his brother, Geoff.

Howie has always occupied a special place in my heart even though we were only very loosely in touch in recent years. I met Howie the second day of freshman orientation. We remained constant companions throughout our four years at Cornell and a bit beyond. We even marched together at graduation. Essentially we grew into adults together.
I loved his quickness and sparkle when he was engaged in whatever he was passionate about. I remember him solving math problems on any scrap of paper, even on paper napkins which he would stick in his pocket to work on later. He'd get so excited about his discoveries. Sometimes he'd try to explain them to me. Other times he would simply nod and stroke his beard as he was pondering a problem.
As others have written he could be so kind and gentle. I am so grateful to have known Howie and will truly miss him. My thoughts and prayers go out to Barbara, Ben and Evan.

Howard was truly an exceptional person. He had the rare quality of combining a high degree of intellect with a humble human nature to explain complex issues in simple terms. He was a true friend to our company and all of us who worked with him individually were richly rewarded through his friendship. His commitment was unwavering and we valued his counsel and leadership during countless transactions. I will always remember one specific financing where Howard spent his Sunday afternoon on the phone with me explaining a complex financial model while being ever patient in his professorial way with a struggling student. Howard will be missed, but we will keep fond memories of a brilliant man with a friendly demeanor.

Howard was my 2nd cousin, about 8 years older than I...My memories are of visiting Howie and Geoffrey when they lived in Carnarsie. My big cousins were so good to my sisters and me! They taught us about the Beatles, and they let us play with their xylophone. We thought they were so cool, especially with their long hair. I wanted to be just like Howie and go to Cornell and major in math, but it was not meant to be. Howie, we love you and miss you, and we are proud of all your accomplishments. Our prayers go out to Barbara, your children, Geoffrey, and your family and friends.
Love, the Cerky Family

Howard has helped me so many times over the years. I recently was asked to provide a comprehensive overview of the world financial crisis to the Harvard Club. Howard helped me pull my presentation together and provided much of the material. Of course the presentation was a hit, even among some of the more jaded bankers in the group. His humor and perspective will be sorely missed.

I first met Howie Hiller at Risley, our dorm at Cornell, when he was the cool guy with the pony tail, jean shirts, and jokes. But I didn't really know him then. It wasn't until 7 or 8 years later, when he was teaching at Columbia, that my husband and I became really good friends with Howard once we moved to New York. What I remember most of that time was Howard's incredible creative energy. He would go to museums to sketch the busts and marble figures. He read and wrote short stories. He had a small keyboard, and later bought a software program so we could write music from his computer. He travelled to South America, Nepal, Eastern Europe, bringing back amazing photographs he had taken. We saw scores of movies, and his insights afterward were always keen and fresh. And the jokes! Constant and hilarious. And the chocolate! Every dinner.
We often felt that Howard's move from the academic to the financial world was an indication of a boredom he felt--not in teaching (which I think he genuinely loved, and continued) but in the lack of demands his teaching schedule imposed on his mind. He needed constant challenge. We often said that Howard wanted something that would consume all his talents and all his energy--and was that even possible? From the many tributes by his coworkers, it's apparent Solomon and Citi did provide that, and I'm glad for him.
Over the years, we lost our friendship with Howard, and we missed him. Fortunately, I'm still close with Barbara, and hope to be a very good best friend through the tough months ahead.

It was with a great sense of shock that I got the news from my daughter Mariann who shared her years at Risley with Howie and brought him to the house often.
I later met him only once again in the
company of my mother who also knew him quite well. We chatted for a good long time on Broadway and
admired his haircut!
My deepest sympathy to Beth and the children

From Long hair rock and roll to a professor of math, and then a love and passion for corporate finance and the power business......howard put his heart and soul into all of it, and the results left lasting impressions on all of us.

I do not feel I have earned the right to sign this guestbook, but I need to. Howard was an exceptional man, it never took anyone long to see he was leagues ahead of his peers, a virtuoso of deep finance who was always willing to break it down for the rest of us without a hint of condescension. Howard was on my finance panel at the Bonbright conference where his wit, humor, and total dedication were once again obvious…as they always were. Howard never seemed to be “off.”
I will miss Howard, and am very deeply saddened by his death.

Michael and I adored and admired Howie, from the moment we met him in my freshman year at Cornell. In fact, I remember first seeing him "holding court" in the cafeteria, attracting a large crowd of admirers with his great sense of humor, story-telling ability and amazing personality. We all felt lucky to call him a friend. Although our friendship continued with sporadic communications over the years, our memories will continue of a very special, brilliant, sparkling human being. We send our love and hugs to Barbara, Ben and Evan.

Howard and his wife Barbara were but two of a large group who became friends through Risley, the Performing and Creative Arts Dormitory at Cornell, where we all either lived or ate in the late 1970's. He and our friend Gary were cards, always cracking up one another and then the rest of us. I remember one time they both came to my parents' house on Long Island, with banter all around. Neither of my parents could forget them. Years would pass, and I'd mention their names in some connection, and it would all come back. I've kept in touch with all of these folks over the years, with Ithaca always as the place to which, like Odysseus, we collectively returned, at least when we could. I will remember Howard swinging in the swing in the woods behind Matt and Wendy's house, where the group of us gathered to talk and laugh. Howard's loss is a great shock. As others attest, he was brilliant, funny, politically astute, a fan and practioner of the arts, and kind. Our love goes out to your family.

My heart is very heavy to hear about Howard. I worked with him for a number of years at Salomon from 1992 through 1996. I was many years junior to him but he always treated everyone with respect, as professionals and came ready to educate all. He will be missed.

I am first cousin to Howard's first cousins, and Howard and I became extended family members and friends. He was a wonderful fellow, brilliant and generous, and an extremely warm and welcoming host. I visited him on numerous occasions when he lived in Manhattan and taught at Columbia, and we had some great and fun times. I often thought about Howard and hoped we could have stayed in closer contact over the years. He had a great sense of humor and was an extraordinary man. I will miss him greatly.

My best moments with howie were the parties, passover seders and late night slide shows at the loft. He was more than Geoff's little brother, he was a kind, creative and talented photographer. Our photos and memories will live on even with his change of address. Howard left the party way too early.

I met Howie when he was teaching at Yale and I was struck by how nice a guy he was. And brilliant. He showed me the book he had written and I'll never forget the first sentence: it was about a page long and not a word I understood. Higher math! We laughed, then went out for pizza and talked movies and travel. That was the Howie who I came to know better over the years, a very special person, who had wit and wisdom and a very big and generous heart and who will be sorely missed.

Howie and I formed a friendship 38 years ago as freshman at Cornell University. Our bond was humor, math, humor, physics, humor, and humor. This diverse mix of interests was a winning formula as it bonded us tightly through all of these years. We were like the left and right pair of old, worn, but comfortable slippers - as single shoes we were sometimes lost, but together we were a great pair whose next step was always anticipated by the other. I am now hobbled.
I loved him like a brother and I'll miss him like a brother. Since it was our ability and custom to complete each other's sentences, I'll do him this last favor and complete a thought I know he'd welcome... to his family - "I love you", and to his boys - "I'm so proud of you I know you'll grow into fine men."
You were a kind and gentle person of exemplary curiosity and ability and, above all, an extraordinary and irreplaceable friend. I will miss you deeply. If there is a heaven, my concern that eternity is a tad too long have diminished knowing that, at least, we'll keep each other amused.
Your friend, Gary

I worked with Howard for the past seven years and almost every Friday, before leaving the office, I would walk over and say good night, tell him to have a good weekend and then I would LOUDLY SHOUT AT HIM, "Now, Howard, I don't want you working this Sunday." He would just shake his head and laugh at me. We both knew that, of course, he would come to work on Sunday but that never stopped us from participating in our Friday afternoon ritual. Howard was a gentleman with a great sense of humor and would always perk up when I would talk about Brooklyn, Bob Dylan and the old Solly days. He was so very proud of his two boys and spoke of them often. My heart goes out to his wife Barbara and two sons, Ben and Evan. Howard, may you rest in peace, I will miss you.

Howard was my younger brother. We were only 18 months apart and extremely close growing up in Brooklyn as well as later on as young adults. Many of you might not be aware that Howard was a "radical" young man of the late sixties- very politicized and to the far left. He managed to get us both arrested as teenagers for arguing with two police officers about our rights to stand in between two parked cars on public property. He was brilliant and very articulate even back then but the police officer was not impressed by his logic. It was my mothers Chutzpah that eventually bailed us out. How dare you arrest her two boys!!! She let that officer have it. I guess he wasn't intimidated since the following year (1968) he helped organize the local protest at our high school against the infamous teachers union strike for almost a month. Those were violent times and we faced threats from the community. Again, our mother supported her boys.
Shortly after at the ripe age of 16 Howard came out to visit me in LA in the summer of 1969 - he was still in high School- and audited Philosophy classes at UCLA. He had managed to look up a renowned logician named Donald Kalish who headed the Philosophy department. Kalish and another very far out European professor took Howie under their wing. His hero at the time was Ludwig Wittgenstein.
Mathematics (after all it served him well) must have seemed more practical to major in at Cornell. He was always trying to explain formulas and proofs to me but lost me after less then a minute.
I recall such happy memories from our time in New York in the late seventies/ early eighties, especially during the summer roaming the city, listening to music and eating great meals at Peter and Barbara's. Their loft was the unofficial meeting place for us "locals" and friends from Europe and Brazil. Ah youth.
After a stint teaching at Columbia University Howard entered the financial sector giving up his work shirts and boots for a suit. Looking back he was barely 30 years old at the time. It took courage to change careers like that.
As many of you commented Howie was a sweet and gentle person. He was very generous and good natured and I wonder what the impact of this new environment had on him? He worked hard but still managed to write short stories. He still had a creative need.
A few years later after our father passed away we both got married and began raising families. I was on the west coast so visits were far and few between.
Flash- forward to October 2008. I'm shocked by my little brothers passing. It's a huge loss for all that knew him
I hope this little story sheds some light about another side of my brother, especially to his sons Ben and Evan. In Howie's last email to me last month he told me about your studies and music making and was so proud of the both of you

I worked with Howard in Salomon Brothers' Financial Strategy Group for a number of years and on many client teams after that. He was one of the brightest, energetic and friendly colleagues I ever knew. No one I have ever known professionally was more dedicated to his profession or more focused on delivering the highest quality advice to his clients and his co-workers. And he always showed a great sense of humor in every conversation and genuine interest in what others had to say. I will always have the fondest memories of Howard. What a great loss for all who knew him and my heart felt sympanthy goes out to his family.
October 30, 2008
I read Howard's morning reports on the financial markets everyday. When I met him, I was surprised at how down-to-earth he was considering his credentials. It made me wish more people were like him.

Howard was the consummate professional - no peer in dedication and genuine passion for his work. Beyond that, he was a friend, mentor and teacher to all of his colleagues (young and old) and clients. He was also an incredibly proud father and the stories shared regarding his children's pursuits is what I will remember the most. My heart goes out to his family and particularly his young children. Rest in peace, Howard.

Howard was a gifted man and an extraordinary friend. His warmth and sense of fun matched the breadth of his knowledge and his dedication to his customers and colleagues. We all came to rely on him.

Howard was the type of person that influenced those around him in the very best way. He taught continuously and aimed for the highest in himself and those who worked with him. I will never forget his gratitude when you gave your best and the math problems that he could always challenge you with. He will always be a model of professionalism and "best practices", as I have heard him described by another. I have been blessed to know him professionally as well as personally. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family.

Howard was my first-cousin and dear friend. He was one of the smartest and funniest people I ever knew. I will always remember that sparkle in his eyes right before he was about to make a witty observation.
As children, Howard entertained us all with his funny stories and imitations. We reacquainted as young adults, when Howard worked as a mathematics professor at Columbia University. This is a time that I will be forever grateful to Howard for his generosity. His keen sense of humor brightened many days and I will miss him.

What a loss! Without embellishment I can say that Howard has been a favorite banking colleague at our company for many years. We often talked about how we could count on Howard for good non-biased advice and for reliable answers to our questions. He was so willing to help and treated us like friends. He truly stood out and will be greatly missed. Our heart and prayers go out to Howard's family and his many other friends.

I always had the highest respect for Howard. When I was Treasurer of Consolidated Edison, Howard befriended me and helped me to better understand complex issues. I will never forget his kind words, smile and sense of humor. He would often throw out some yiddish words that he knew I understood which made me smile. I will remember him fondly

I have a great day that lives in my memory.
Back in the winter of 1995 we were house guests of Howard and his family. We took the car into Manhattan. Howard showed us the sights, he showed us his office and trading floor and toured us around Central park. We drove behind a racing ambulance to get through traffic and we had lunch at a NY deli. Howard was proud and happy to share his world with us. I will forever cherish that day and Howard's kindness and generosity.

I enjoyed being a client of Howard’s for many years. I will greatly miss his intelligence, thoughtfulness, dedication and sense of humor. He taught me about current, complex topics in finance when I began working in Treasury, and I will always be grateful for his help. We could count on him to develop creative and helpful ideas for challenging questions. He also brought a sense of teamwork and fun to a complex business; whether it was a holiday photo of his team or a bit of clever humor in a presentation, Howard was always a pleasure to work with. We at Sempra Energy will miss him very much and extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends.
Barbara Brown

Howard was my first cousin and dear friend. He was not only one of the smartest people I ever met, he was also one of the funniest. When we were children, Howard would entertain us all with his unique talent of talking backwards and telling funny stories.
I got to know Howard better while we were young adults living together in NYC when he was a professor at Columbia University, Mathematics Department. Despite his great intellect and accomplishments, he was always generous with his time and ready to share a good laugh. Right before he would tell a joke or make a funny observation, he would pause with a distinctive sparkle in his eyes. That look alone would usually start the laughter. I will always remember that look of Howard's and I will miss him greatly.
My thoughts and love go to Howard's family, my close friend, Barbara and their talented son's Ben and Evan.

Whenever we had a question, we called Howard. You could count on him being good natured and also to have a "right" answer. For a PhD type, he did not think always in business theory as do many PhD's. He would put a practical side to his answers and not just theory. You could count on him always being a gentleman without arrogance. We at Southern, here in Atlanta, will miss him very much and my condolensces to the family.
