My deepest sympathy to the Howe family. I was fortunate to have Mr. Howe as a coach. He made me discover things I never new I had, physically and intellectually. His encouraging words and a pat on the back were gold to me.
A kind man with a kind soul. Rest in peace, Coach.

I have many happy memories of teaching across the hall from Dick at Alderwood Collegiate. My happiest of these memories was our time on the Mediterranean Cruise. While Dick and I were working hard (?) performing our duties attending meetings, and chaperoning students, Betty and my husband who had joined us as "attachments" spent their time together.
There are countless former students who have fond memories of Dick, and who benefitted from his understanding and wise counselling. Rest in peace Dick.

My sincere condolences to the entire Howe Family. I remember Mr. Howe coaching us to the Ontario Lacrosse Championship in Owen Sound back in 1971. Although lacrosse was new to Mr. Howe, playing as a cohesive team was right up his alley. When I received a lazy penalty against the other team, I was afraid to head back to face the wrath of Mr. Howe. When I headed back to the bench after the penalty, I got the steely eyed stare from the big guy. Mr. Howe, thanks for being a great mentor and teacher.

My sincere condolences to the Howe family. I had the good fortune of growing up in Alderwood during the fifties/sixties,and at the core of those experiences was Alderwood Collegiate.Valuable life lessons were learned there,both in the classroom and on the football field with Mr.Howe-among them-personal integrity and the ability to persevere.There is a debt of gratitude owed by many.R.I.P.-you are truly deserving.

I remember chatting frequently with Dick and his son at Toronto Argos games for many, many seasons. DIck was a friendly man who had a sense of humour and with whom I enjoyed discussing the elements of the game on the field. I found Dick to be also a quiet man, but his comments on the game were always insightfful. I remember him commenting one evening when I missed the first season opener ever because of a wedding: "Thank goodness you're here! We were going to send out a search party!" I'm sure he will be greatly missed by family and friends. My condolences to all who knew him.

My condolences to Mrs Howe and the rest of the Howe family. I played football for and wrestled on Mr Howe's teams at Alderwood in the early 1970's. He was a good man,a good coach and I have many fond memories of those days at Alderwood.
Rest in peace Mr Howe.

Our deepest condolences to Betty, his children and his grand children. Dick will be remembered for his contributions to the lives of many of his students, his kindness, his warmth and his sense of humour. I will always remember him sitting on his deck at their cottage, enjoying a glass of wine and telling life experience stories. Don and Eshrat

A gentle and compassionate soul that touched the lives of every student and person he met. I was never lucky enough to have Mr. Howe in a class, but he was wonderful with Mrs. Howe in looking after a group of us on the Meditterean cruise in 1971. I wish I had had a chance to see him again at the reunion - but he will always be one of my fondest memories. Rest in Peace, Sir

My deepest condolences to all family and friends. Mr. Howe was never one of my teachers at Alderwood CI, but he was still a big part of my high school life. He always said hello with a genuine smile. He was kind and caring...always making me feel like I was part of the Alderwood family. He coached my brother Tom in football and wrestling, and I know how much Tom admired him. Give Tom a big hug for me, Mr. Howe.
