    Dear Georgene,
    You have lost a wonderful friend, and
    I have lost a dear and good friend.

    Whenever I think of Howard, I will remember how thoughtful he always
    was and his great sense of humor at
    NSAF.
    Please know that we consider ourselves blessed to have been two of
    his friends during past 12 years.

    You surely know you have our deepest
    sympathy and our love as well.

    To family of Howard:

    Although I know words offer small
    comfort in your hour of sorrow.
    I do wish to express my sincere sympathy to you on the loss of your
    beloved Father.

    Ms Stinnett,
    When I visited you and Mr. Scott was there, I will always remember the conversations we had. The two of you would be reliving a place that you had been and I was going. You two had me so pumped up, I couldn’t wait to get there. Mr. Scott was always kind and very knowledgeable on any topic. Even though I only knew him for a short time, I will miss him. To Ms. Stinnett and the family, may you seek comfort in knowing that one day you will see him again.
