Nathaniel R. Howard II

Uncle Nat, known to my three brothers and me as Uncle Tig, was just plain wonderful.

To Liz, Mark, Teresa and Vinnie - I send best wishes and kind sympathies from the George family. Speaking to Nat Howard over the years was a true joy. He was a warm, intelligent, witty and kind-hearted man. I will really miss seeing him at the Cedar Road Starbuck's.

Lizzy, Mona, Alyssa and Ted;
Please accept my deepest symapthies at this time.
