I will have fond memories of Howard- I loved his appreciation of life, music, and the arts and was glad to be included in his annual musical gala that he hosted for all his friends. I enjoyed our conversations about spiritualism as we shared similar beliefs- He will be missed- I send my sincerest condolences to those who knew and loved Howard. Bless him on his journey home.

I sat next to Howard at the weekly oil painting class held in the senior center, downtown Chicago. I learned a lot by watching him. Rest in peace.
