Howard was one of the great mathematicians and scholars of our class. Such a pleasure to have known him. I pray he has passed on some of his genius and sincerity to his family. A wonderful legacy that would be,
A couple of years ago, Howard and I joined forces to try to find Richard Schmidt. We found him up in Anchorage, Alaska, but were unable to make a connection. I enjoyed our times talking and texting back and forth--and remember Howard as a brilliant guy and our class valedictorian. He will be missed. Our prayers go out to his family and all who counted Howard a dear friend.
I am so saddened to hear of Howard's passing. What a kind, sweet, and very smart young man he was, and I know he lived an exemplary life of service to others. Much sympathy goes out to his family. Howard will be greatly missed.
I am very sorry to hear the passing of Howard. Not only was he very smart, at times he was funny. I'm always heartbroken to hear of a fellow fallen Trojan. My condolences to his family and friends. Gone too soon.
I'm saddened by the loss of Howard. With so much promise I often wondered about his life's path. As a physics major he had the smarts to do something special like discovering an unknown planet or galaxy. Instead he chose the mundane - to be of service to others.
When I learned he had joined this website, we started exchanging messages and emails. We shared information about each of our families' roots and general interest in genealogy.
In high school I was envious of Howard. I had to walk to school every day from the other side of the freeway (wouldn't get caught in the school bus), while Howard who lived on Orange Avenue right across from the school parking lot could go home every day for lunch. Classes were easy for Howard, while the rest of us had to study. He deserved more years than he was given.

Getting to know Howard, when he attended one Picnic, led to a wonderful email friendship, exchanging so many life lessons.
