So sorry to hear that Cousin Howard has passed away. I remember him from his Seattle days and family gatherings with his parents and uncles and aunts. May he be wrapped in the arms of the Shechina.

Howard, I will miss you! I had the pleasure of 25 years of working and scheming with Howard, and considered him a friend. Our conversations would travel through space, art, finance, justice and other random ideas that would pop into the mix. I treasure the times we had. My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Howard was a wonderful, funny, exuberant, caring and committed friend and great supporter of social justice as well as the arts. He not only supported his passions, but got things done. Our community is better because Howard was part of it. He will be missed.
