Grace is my cousin and we had many fond memories of spending time together with Howard. We spent fun time in Boston at a cousins Bar Mitzvah and when we visited Howard and Grace at their home in Skokie. We always enjoyed seeing Howard and Grace and will greatly miss Howard.

Howard was a great person. I knew Howard for many, many years going back to B'nai Jacob. He was always very jovial, good hearted and I especially enjoyed helping deliver when he did the Lox Box event every year at SVAJ. He always had a great outlook on life. His knowledge of Judaism was superb. He will sorely be missed. My deepest sympathy to Grace and the entire Weinstein family.

I remember going to High Holiday Services with my zayde, morris katz. And Howard walked around the congregation passing out candy. I only saw him for the holidays until I joined a shul of my own, but I will always remember his smile and his kindness to my grandparents.
