This is a true tragedy. Our world is definitely diminished by the loss of this truly good person. So many memories from long ago that always begin and end with a smile and a laugh from my heart. Howie, you lived with peace and grace and were always an example we could follow and be proud to emulate. Rest easy my friend. Let your spirit be the strength and comfort that your family will take solace in. You will be missed dearly and by many.
