Not sure what to say?

Peggy- Sorry to hear of your loss. Howie lost his mom in that car accident at Rockford and Telegraph road. I remember that so vividly for some reason. He was an outstanding guard in basketball with an accurate, long distance set shot. Saw you two walking into Dearborn Theatre 50 - 60 years ago. Hope you are well and adapting in a positive way to your new life. Sorry for your loss. Bill Morrill 4/25/2023

The Colorado Durand´s, Jim and Kim (deceased) Deb, Mark and Alicia, send our best. We are Anne Winkworth Durand´s grandchildren, so Howie´s cousins once removed). We were hoping to visit next month with a trip to Durango. Please accept our condolences. It was always a treat to have Howie visit our parents in Fort Collins. The Winkworth tribe was, no doubt, there to greet him.

I graduated from Dearborn High too; my name was Susan Williams. Peggy, you and Howie lived on the same street as Gil and I in Dearborn (Beechmont) for a few years. So happy for you to have so many wonderful years of children, grandchildren, travel and companionship....Full life and great memories! I am so sorry for your loss!

Our sympathy goes out to Peggy, Mark, Tracey and other family members. Reading Howie's obituary brought back many fund memories, especially at Dearborn High and later at Mich. St.

OMG Peggy, my heart is heavy for you and family...Monica just called me as she and Tracy are on FB and I am devasted to hear of this...you are in my thoughts and it proves to me I should never put off what I have been planning to do and us having lunch in Durango this spring. I called when I heard even though the message was not as controlled as it was intended but we've been through a lot over the many years and it was such a jolt to hear it. Let me know what I can do and you can count on...
