My sincere condolences to Howie’s family on the loss of a man who was a good friend to my Dad, Sid Tildsley. I can only picture their reunion as a happy one. May you Rest In Peace.

Howie, it was my pleasure to call you a friend. It was great to visit you at home over the past couple months giving me the opportunity to see you one more time. I will never forget when you came to my birthday party you brought me that beautiful watch. May God embrace you when you arrive.

Howie you were such a cherished friend to me for so many years.

You have been such strong figure in my life as well as Ellen, when not many people stood by me and thought they had to choose a side you stood by me with your friendship and loyalty and I never forgot it.

Those are the things you never forget and have much gratitude still 40 years later.

I am going to miss seeing you, much love Yvonne

The McAuley children would like to send our condolences to Howie’s family.
Howie’s brother Bill was our Uncle (married to Helen McAuley, who was my Father Jim’s sister), so we knew him from extended family events. The Howie we remember was a gentleman and always kind to us.
We’re very sorry to hear of his passing. Rest In Peace.

Ellen I'm so sorry for your loss.

R.I.P Howie Winter! —You will definitely be missed by so many. I’ve literally never heard anyone say a bad thing about you.
I Just wish I had gotten a chance to get to know you better, from what I’ve heard I definitely missed out. Your loyalty and selflessness is something people should learn from and envy. Thank you for all that you've done for my little family to be possible today. Mario wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you, which means my son Angelo wouldn’t be here today either, and for that I will always be grateful for you. The man, the myth, the legend! Rest In the sweetest Peace xox - Ellen- Mario, the baby (Angelo), and I send our sincerest condolences during such a heartbreaking time.

Uncle Howie I will miss our young man talk's and the advice you gave me. So glad I knew you as long as I did. I will keep you in my heart. Rest in Peace uncle Howie. Love you God Bless.

Howie I never thought this moment would come when I had to say goodbye. I will always remember when my mom died on Feb 14th, 1978 when you walked into my dad's home and hugged him and said Mr. Brogna everything will be ok and remember I will always be here for you and your family sense then Howie never left my family a true respected man. I will miss the talk's we had and my son will miss the young man talk's you would have with him and tell him he's a well respected young man.I love you Howie I will be there for my sister always. You will always have a place in my heart and and in Patrick's to. Until we meet again on the otherside RIP Brother-n- law and Uncle.

Mr. Winter,
Sir, as a fellow Marine I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the USMC during WW II.

And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
