I was pleased to know Howie as a coach. He was a great coach. Later in life we stayed close always enjoyed battling him and Vince at cards at the Mounds Creek social club Christmas party. I will always remember that he was the first person at my father's wake and the big hug he gave me and the hearty laughs we shared on that sad day. I regret I cannot attend his wake as I am pretty sick with covid at this time. I am sure he will be saying geez Louise coaching up a team for St. Peter. I am never going to forget his kindness and friendship. I would never wish him back to his final years, however I know he has moved on to a better place. 1st down coach enjoy the view in heaven.
