My deepest sympathy. I knew Howard from my many years of work at QEH and Mt. Herbert Addictions. He was always such a great person. friendly and caring. He was so strong and such a inspiration when he was coming back from major surgery. We always had a laugh each time we seen each other and joked about retirement. My deepest Sympathy to Family and Friends.

In my 14 years working with Howard, Howard was simply the friendliest, hardest working, happiest person I ever meet. He will certainly be missed by all his work colleagues here at QEH Facilities. Just an absolute pleasure to have known and worked with Howard. I personally feel grateful and honoured to have known and worked with such a caring and talented person. Deepest condolence to all.

Aggie and family. We were all saddened and shocked to hear of Howard's passing. He was a legend at the QEH boiler plant. I had worked with Howard over the past 12 years or more. He was one of the top guys to work with, even at the age of 80. You could tell that he loved his job and he was very good at it. He was always at the top of the list if you needed something done. He will always be remembered as a great worker, but most importantly, a great FRIEND. He will truly be missed. Murray McAvinn and Family
