Not sure what to say?

life isn't fair. gone but not fogotten

Howard was such an amazing human being. He radiated light and love making it impossible to be unhappy in his presence. The world will miss him and his infectious joy.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Love you Judy and may God continue to Bless you always.

We will cherish the time we spent with Howard in Costa Rica. We loved being able to housesit such a spectacular home. We remember a super fun July 4th letting off fireworks with Howard and Judy and sharing lots of laughter. Much love to you dear Judy and your family.

I got to see Howard at one of Maid Brigades annual conference in Nashvile where I met Martine for the first time.. Distance can separate us but family always remains. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the Purdys until we meet again from the LaMondes...

I am so very sorry for your loss, although I´ve only known Howard a few years I definitely feel the hole that he will leave in your life....but you are right, he would only want that empty space to be filled love, laughter, nature and joy - along with a fabulous meal and bottle of wine.

Best Men forever. Howard and I were best friends in grade school and then reconnected in our college years when his family moved next door. So many adventures including the backpacking through Europe in the summer of 74. When we found the loves of our lives, we were each other's best man when the marriage bells rang. My memories will carry me forward as I mourn the loss of my friend. My prayers are with all of his family as they grieve for their loss. Rest in Peace, Howard.
