02 Aug 2006 Howard was a wonderful friend and like so many others who went to Viet Nam didn't expect nor deserve what happened to him. I still think of him even after all these years. He will never be forgotten and will always be loved. God Bless Howard and I know you are looking down on us all. From a friend, Carolynn Favreau Kirksville Mo 63501 cartom@marktwain.net
