Howard Weinstein, 61, of Cherry Hill, NJ passed away on September 4, 2025.

Howard was born in Philadelphia on August 8, 1964 (8x8=64) to the late Dorothy (nee Ball) and Jared Weinstein. He resided in Cherry Hill for the majority of his life, and was a 1982 graduate of Cherry Hill East High School. Howard also attended Rutgers University Camden, where he was a member of the Kappa Sigma Upsilon fraternity.

A love for music (but not Journey), and a passion for the record industry was a vital part of his upbringing, as his father was the owner and founder of the Record Museum. Howard, along with his brother Scott, would go on to own DoubleU Inc.

In addition to music (with the exception of Journey), Howard loved the New York Mets, Chinese food, Bugs Bunny, The Three Stooges, playing the lottery, and especially his friends and family.

Howard is survived by his sister and brother-in-law Lisa and Michael Coppola, his brother Scott Weinstein; nieces and nephews Sarah Balmos (Andrew), Adam Coppola (Taylor), Daniel Coppola, Isabella Weinstein, and Sebastian Weinstein; great- nieces and nephews Henry, Lydia, Bennett, Juliana, Salvatore, and Addison; his KAZOO brothers, and many other friends and family, who love and miss him dearly.

Services will be held on Wednesday afternoon, September 10, 2025 at 1:00PM at Crescent Memorial Park in Pennsauken, NJ.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Abbie Hunt Bryce Home in Indianapolis, IN through their website: https://www.morninglightinc.org . The care Howard received there and with Transitions Hospice was an absolute blessing in his final days.

Howard was such a great kazoo brother, always smiling and gragarious, and laughing. He was just the most beautiful soul.

Howard visited us a couple times last fall. My daughter, who knew him well enough that she called him her uncle, was sitting with her head on her boyfriend´s shoulder. Howard asked, "Is that comfortable?" She said yes. So Howard sat on the other side and rested his head on her boyfriend´s shoulder. This is just one time of him being as kind and funny as he always was. Howard, we miss you so much.

I remember Howard as a true original, a modern-day renaissance man whose remarkable blend of passions and wit enriched the lives of everyone he met. To know him was to be perpetually curious, forever on your toes, and always, always laughing.
His wicked sense of humor, he made even the most obscure fact feel like a shared secret, delivered with a perfect, dry timing.
Hours would vanish in conversation with Howard. We'd take a mundane observation and, like a pair of jazz musicians, riff on it until it became an absurd and ridiculous new reality. Those were the times when the world felt a little less serious and a lot more magical. He was a great storyteller, he knew things that few did, but he was also a great audience-he knew when to add the perfect punchline and when to simply sit back and let you have the floor.
Despite his larger-than-life personality, Howard possessed a rare and genuine humility. He had a way of treating everyone he met with dignity and respect, seeing the full, original person inside them. He made you feel heard and valued, a testament to his kind and generous spirit.
There will be so many things to miss: the hours of conversation, the absurd humor, the incredible stories. But there will also be the small, particular things that made him unique. His ordering of the same meal over and over, "a hamburger with nothing on it" and a glass of unsweetened iced tea". These quirks were part of the tapestry of a man who was, in every sense of the word, an original.
The laughter, the stories, and his universal kindness will forever inspire us.
