My condolences to the family. Howard and I worked together and became the best of friends. We were in contact all the time, his move to Miami and in different times he was hospitalized there. When he texted me that he was in hospice and wanted to say his goodbyes I was shocked.. .My last conversation with him was when he was with his son and family and he sounded so happy. Rest my friend, I will miss our conversations.

I didn´t know my Brother in the Bond very well but I did know him. I arrived at Phi Delta Theta about the time that Howie was graduating from Ga Southern.
