Hi Carol.
I have just learned of Howard's passing. I am so sorry to hear of his loss, and that we have not kept in touch for so many years.
I have been sending out wedding photos of my daughter Megan and her new husband, Craig, to friends and family and had no current information for you. I hope you have been doing well and that this belated message reaches you. Please give me a call: 314-437-0407 I would love to hear about you and your family.
