I've known Howard since we were at John Tracy Clinic in 1949. We got to know each other better since Howard and his family moved to LA which was only 4 blocks from my home. Howard went to CSDR while I was attending Le Conte Junior High. I was so impressed with his math skills and often try to challenge him in math. Mostly on weekends and summers, we would get together along with Howard's brother Mark and my brother Bob. Howard and his family moved to the valley during our high school years.
Gayle's roommate was Mary Ann during their freshman year. They as "widows" would follow Howard and myself during Kappa Gamma probation.
As we moved to Riverside, we had the opportunity to get together with him and Mary Ann more often, but sad to see Howard go. He is to be remembered with his great smiles and laughter. May Howard Rest in Peace!
