F. Howard Mayo

I appreciate his many contributions to Hoops, especially his explanations for the rules of basketball. Old School is Good School.

My grandfather was a great man I spent every summer with him from age 7 til 15 he wasn't only my grandfather but my dad and I'm going to miss him greatly. There's a big hole in my heart now that he's not here any more but I know he will be watching down over my cousin Joe sister Caitlin and l and his great grandchildren. I love and miss you Grampa/dad Love Ian Mayo

A great contributor to the game of basketball.
We will miss him!

The sea was calm
Howard was young
And he was at the rail
With shipmates once again.

Alice Rae, my deepest condolences. I've known Howard since I was a kid and unfortunately last spoke with him several years ago and am wishing I'd kept in better touch. He was a pal of my Dad and they had some great times together. My thoughts are with you and the family, I know you'll miss him.

Truly a horrific loss. I've known Howard for 50 years. My most memorable moment with him was explaining how I crashed his car at age 15 while dating his daughter. Our paths continue to cross as we worked together in the electrical industry, assisted with his basketball endeavors, and enjoyed our many encounters at Starbucks where he routinely held court among his friends and admirers. I can still hear him saying "remember when I found your mittens in Sun Valley?" I miss him already. He was...
