HOWARD MARSHALL BUSHMAN

So sorry to discover just now that Howard has passed away! I served with him in theLegal Assistance Office in the Pentagon from 1973 to 1976! Prayers!

May you REST IN PEACE and JOY Howard! Blessings and Comfort to his beloved family and friends. I was honored to be able to be considered a friend by him and am so thankful I got to know him. One in a million he was. His family and friends are a testament indeed.

Howard was not only a good attorney who helped me and my family through difficult times when my husband was killed but was a true friend. Later Howard helped me to set up my business and, somehow, I always felt better just knowing he was there should we need him...and he was! That is the kind of professional and friend that he was to all of his "military family." May you, the Bushman family find comfort knowing that so many respected and cared for him and are now caring and praying for you during this deeply difficult time.

To John and all the Bushman family please receive our condolences at the passing of Howard. Brad let me know just yesterday or we would have surely come to the viewing to pay our respects. Thinking of Howard brings back many memories of Little League in McLean and raising our families. It was a special time for us and we treasure the friendships forged during those years. Howard was a giant of a man and we send our prayers to the family. Jerry & Sharyn Regier for all the Regier Family. Ashburn, VA

I am so sorry to hear that Howard has passed so soon. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends. Howard's big personality and professionalism will surely be missed by all who knew him. God bless you Howard!

Seems impossible to believe Howard will no longer be part of our Real Estate Community in Arlington. I'll miss that "twinkle in his eyes" and his ability to always see the "bigger picture." I have many happy memories sitting around the settlement table with Howard at the funny old office on Wilson Blvd. My sympathy to the Bushman family. Well Done, Howard

Howard, was so helpful to me when Tom passed away. But as we sorted through Tom's law practice, I remember that he would occasionally mention his love for baseball, and proudly speak of his grandson. His office held reminders of what was very important to him, including Army memorabilia, pictures of his family and of course baseball. Although a very accomplished lawyer himself, he would tell me that he had such admiration and respect for Tom's legal mind. He was a kind man and I respected his legal advice. He was a friend.
Rest in Peace Howard.

Beloveds, what a comfort it is to know that, "God is near to those broken at heart, and those who are crushed in spirit he saves."

Howard, I miss you already. I miss the advice and kindness you showed me
The last 16 years. I miss your sense of humor, your calmness in bringing us together when we had 14 different ideas, as president of the HOA you brought us together. It was a pleasure and honor to work with you.
All of us at St John's are your "other family".
RIP my dear friend. Love you.

I went to law school at the University of Missouri with Howard, and then kept in touch with him sporadically over the years. He was always in good humor and engaging. He enjoyed his law practice, spoke fondly and affectionately of his family, and was a friend to people from all walks of life. He was a patriot and justifiably proud of his affiliation with the U.S. Army. My condolences to his family on their loss.--CAVM

So sorry to hear about Howard. He wasn't just a law school classmate but a good friend during those years at MU. Howard was an inquisitive and serious law student. I remember him joining in many informal study groups. I'm sure I can speak for other classmates and say how proud we are of his many professional accomplishments. Nolen Berry, J.D. 1070.

Howard and I were classmates at the University of Missouri School of Law and at the Army JAG School at the University of Virginia. I lost contact with Howard after his move to Virginia, but remember him as a fun loving guy and someone who was interesting to be around. Condolences to Howard's family from Doug & Julia Evans and family.

Howard was a good friend, a true professional, and an Army JAG Reserve colleague for many years. His great legal service in our profession as well as his work with the Army Historical Foundation will be missed by all. W. Peyton George, Santa Fe, NM

Howard Bushman was my friend, my military colleague and from time to time my personal lawyer. Howard loved the Army; he frequently reached out to members of the Army family who needed professional or personal help. Howard was a leader of the "Old Fuds" group of retired Army JAG officers. I doubt if he ever missed a local memorial service for a fallen member of the Army family. We will miss you, Howard. We pray that God will welcome you to his eternal home.

I have lost a loyal friend who gave me sound legal
advice.

Condolence Jeff! Sorry to hear that u dad passed away! Be strong!!

I never started a conversation with Howard without being clear headed and on my tip toes. He had sharp intellect, keen wit, subtle insights, and (frequently) not so subtle thoughts - - all to be admired and respected. Wrapped around it all was an incredible generosity and loyalty. I will miss you, Howard!

Howard lived his life with integrity, generosity, and enthusiasm. He loved his family, country and cardinals. We will miss him. LOL❤

I send my sincere condolences to the Bushman family. I only spent a couple of years as a neighbor of Howard & Betty, in 1971 & 1972, when I was a young Marine and Howard was on active duty in the Army. We lived in a high rise building on Columbia Pike and I thought you guys were such a wonderful young couple. I still remember how much I enjoyed taking with you two. It has been more than 40 years, but, I never forgot you guys Betty and I was very saddened to hear about Howard's passing. Rest in Peace Howard, I know your family will miss you dearly and I sent my deepest sympathy.

Sincerely,

Gil Lynch

Always enjoyed his belly laugh, talking baseball and enjoying great cigars while looking for fireworks. He was a great man and made me a better man knowing him .
It was RIchard Lewis rest in peace my friend

America lost a great patriot and I lost a dear and loyal friend. You will be sorely missed Howard Bushman.

I will so very much miss my dear friend, Howard. He and I spent many hours together either on his deck or my deck outside in Colonial Beach enjoying the spacious and beautiful scenery of the Potomac River enjoying a fine cigar and great conversation. I cherish the memories.

My dear brother, may you rest in peace and keep all our loved ones laughing at your antics. Hope therel are Lincolns, cigars, BBQ ribs, and grandma goldie's liver and onion sandwiches up there. And, may you fly around all our old houses and grade schools. Lol
