On the recent passing of Forrest Latiner, Howard's former law partner, I realized that Howard had passed many years ago. I first met Howard many years ago when I was a deputy d.a. He was a character in the best sense: personable, funny, smart, outspoken and loved being a lawyer. Even today, I can still see him "holding court" in his inimitable manner.

A real professional and a gentleman. As a Deputy DA I tried many cases against Howard, including a death penalty case. We always went out to lunch when the jury was sent out to deliberate. We both did our jobs but it was never personal. Great guy, I miss him.

Howard, you were one of the greatest and most respected attorneys. But most importantly you were a terrific person and friend, your charisma and personality was an amazing gift and I am sure everyone will agree. For me you are and will always be an angel that I found when I needed a miracle to happen and you made it possible. Thank you for everything you did. May God Bless you always.

I will miss you.

When everything else was falling down around me, Howard somehow made it better. It was an impossible time and his kindness will forever be with me.
I will miss you.

He was extremely generous and kind. He's the best of the best and now he's gone. He touched so many lives and helped so many. So many can learn from him. I hope the have. He will be missed, he is missed. A former client from Los Angeles.

I was distressed when I read read about Howard's death on the Internet. Howard was one of my best friends in law school at Ohio State University College of Law. When he graduated and left Columbus to go to Los Angeles to become a lawyer I was saddened because I felt I would not be able to see him very often. Fortunately, or did come here to a reunion and I made a trip to Los Angeles and saw him.it sounds as if Howard had a very happy life in Los Angeles. To all concerned, I give my condolences and wherever he is I will miss him being available. We talked on the telephone a couple of times and I feel guilty not having talked to him more often.Howard, I will say a prayer for you. I was also born in 1931.I went to the Buckeye game in the Rose Bowl in 1997 and did not get to see our Howard. However, I'm sure he is still rooting for the buckeyes where he is.

It is a very rare individual who can make each person he meets feel important. Howard Beckler was that kind of individual. It is a very rare person who can make others see the nobility in doing right, in being compassionate and the importance of living life fully. Howard Beckler was that kind of person. It is a very rare husband, father and friend who can provide constant and unconditional love and devotion. Howard Beckler was that kind of patriarch and friend. One of the greatest tributes to this man is the impact he had on so very many people. He is forever imprinted on our lives and hearts. We are all better for having the great pleasure of sharing in this incredible man’s life. He will forever be loved and missed!

What a loss! Howard was always so upbeat. Even when he had reason to complain, he didn't. Every time you'd run in to Howard, he'd genuinely show interest in your well-being, greet you with a smile, and light up the room. I will miss our times at court and Mountaingate. I am very saddened by his passing.....Jay Jaffe

We have all lost a great man , a wonderful lawyer that had class, dignity, a true professional. He did his best for all of his clients, even those that didn't deserve it. I tried a Capitol case against Howard when I was a Deputy DA in the 80's...we were good friends before, during, and after the trial. He taught me to love life by telling me how much he cherished his wife Frankie, skiing, tennis and his love of sports.

The light in my life got dimmed by the passing of one of my favorite people. Loving, caring, selfless, most honorable and beautiful individual that I have ever known. The man I proudly boasted of all my life and was lucky enough to call DAD. Forever in my heart and soul, I love you so very much.
GO BUCS!!
