Edith Ingraham Howe

Tom and I remember and are inspired by Edie. We look at the maple tree at our Maine home and remember when she and Ed helped us plant the tree near our front porch. I think of Edie now as the world turns upside down and how she worked for humanity, kindness and peace. We send blessings to her family today.

As a dear friend, Edie Howe, remains in our hearts. She is still alive to us in memories of the school she founded and her unique perspective on how to live and be. The little octagonal studio space where Joey was born exists as a symbol of eightfold path and our spiritual aspirations. The "Daughters of Abraham" remains a monument to Edie's hope for a culturally inclusive American dream, needed now more than ever. Always, Fran and Tom

Just hearing the news of her death- she was an always cheerful member of my first year law school study group. I have many fond memories of her during those law school years.

My deepest sympathy to the Howe and Crary family...

I'll never forget her beautiful smile and lovely long blond hair.

I did not know Edie well in high school, but I remember her in English class. Our teacher would call on her when the rest of us could not answer her questions. Edie would always have an insightful answer!

My prayers are with you
Edie was a friend and a mentor

Shalom

Edee has been on our minds and in my hearts always. This month we felt her presence every day; when an e-mail was not returned, we feared to call. We loved Edee very much and are proud to have known her. Love Fran and Tom Wills

I worked with Edie when she was the general counsel of EOHS. I moved to New York City in 1998 and was shocked to read of her death in the Times. She was a gentle person and I was not surprised to read of the wonderful directions her life had taken since those times. Her life truly made a difference to this world.

Edie was my dear friend, and a joy in my life. I loved her gentleness and good humor, and the strength beneath it. The Daughters of Abraham group she founded has changed my life forever, and many other lives. Every blessing to all the family.
