Howard was an inspiration to all of us and the world. Family was reminiscing about Howard and what interesting guest he was for many years at the New Years Day celebration at my home in Florida. All of us respected him, loved him, and will miss him. May he rest in peace. Sandy Bornstein and Family

Howard, Thank you for your devoted attention and respect your showed Aunt Ruth and Uncle Joe. At every Seder and family event you made a point of sitting and talking with them. Even at the 100th birthday party you made a speech that brought down the house.
