Howard was a kind and gentle man who always had a smile regardless of the commotion around him. I will miss this friend of 50 years who was a "GIANT" in our Industry.
God bless you until we meet again.

Mary Lou,

It is with a deep sense of sorrow that we learn of the passing of your dear husband.

Death is always a difficult time for those of us who are left to mourn.

But if we believe that death is the beginning of a beautiful and everlasting life, we can gain strength in the knowledge that someday we will be together again with our loved ones.

Please accept this ACTION MANUFACTURING COMPANY employees' expression of sympathy to your family and to this I add my own personal condolences.

Very Truly Yours,

Anthony J. Capella

Howard was a man of dignity, honor and integrity with a great sense of humor. I will never forget the times he would stop in to see Marylou at Pine Rd. School and offer to share some of his experiences, wisdom,quips etc. I will always remember these occasions and I consider myself privileged for the experience of having Howard cross my life path. Peace Howard.
