Dear Kristi;
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time. I worked with Howard at P&G during the busy "large project" times. I miss those days and will miss Howard, remembering him to be kind and generous to everyone. I am grateful to you for the wonderful family photos you shared in the video. We will all miss him very much.

Dear Kristi,
My deepest condolences to you and your family for the loss of a wonderful father and friend. Howard was a good man. I knew Howard as a good friend and colleague for many years. He was one of the best to work with and we shared many good times around the world from Jackson to Belgium to Malaysia. He never liked being away from home and his daughter and he always spoke about you with much pride and love. Our thoughts are with you and family during this time.
Mike Haney and family.
