From NARP:
QUOTE Late Friday afternoon I received a call from Suzanne, Howard's daughter, regarding his MRI . The test showed that Howard had a major stroke while he was at rest. The result of this stroke is that the Howard we all know and love, would never be the same. The family has decided to let our friend leave us peacefully. I wish I could say more, but even this is difficult to type at this time. I have opened this forum so that we may grieve together and pay our last respects to a man we all love. It is expected that Howard will pass sometime this weekend. Out of respect for Howard, all other board topics have been closed for the weekend. I will be reopen everything on Monday. |

I met Howard in 04 on the way to the WCC. He came and knocked on my window to wake us up at the meet up place. From then on it was a laugh a minute the rest of the weekend. Then when he got together with Alison Baker, the laughs got even harder and more abundant. He offered to let me drive his car on the way up to the WCC and then let me drive it at the AX since I did not have my car with me. He has attended and contributed to our community more than almost anyone I know. Invited me into his home, came to my home, partied with all of us locals and was always ready to go for a drive. He is what we all wish to be. I know some of the other people here are even closer to him and will be torn emotionally by this more than any can think.
Howard, You will now and always be my inspiration and I for one, will miss you. Good bye my friend, Via Con Dios And say hi to my Dad for me would ya? |
