Jean, I was saddened to read of Howard's death last week. During the time I worked with you at Althouse College, I was always conscious of the close bond between you and Howard. Listening to you tell stories of your family life and activities, and your war-time memories, we knew that there was fun, friendship, and a deep love shared between you two, and you served as a role model which we younger women admired and looked up to. My deepest sympathy on the loss of your cherished life partner.
