Beta Pi Blog, Vol.2007, No.30 - A Gathering in Honor of David Howe

Beta Pi:

A GATHERING IN HONOR OF DAVID HOWE: I got word from my friend Dara Howe (David Howe’s widow) that there will be a memorial gathering for David, and she asked me to let the Tick-a-lors know. Dara, Dom was so fortunate to have you as his wife!

"Larry,

Attached is the invitation and directions with map weblink with information about the June 23rd events commemorating David. Happy for you to share this with the 'brothers', but would need to know if any plan to attend the reception after. I look forward to seeing you and Ann, if she is available.

Regards,

Dara

DIRECTIONS TO WOODLAWN CEMETERY COLUMBARIUM LOCATION:

Interstate Directions: On I-65 headed south from I-440, take the first exit at Armory Drive. Follow the sign to Powell Avenue and bear right to merge onto Powell going north past 100 Oaks Mall to the intersection at Thompson Lane (SR 155). Turn right on Thompson and go through the stop light at mall's north entrance. Immediately following the Guitar Center and the Beaman Bottling Plant take the cemetery entrance on the right (south side of Thompson). The columbarium will be a few hundred yards into the cemetery on the right.

DIRECTIONS TO 4414 CURTISWOOD CIRCLE HOME:

From Woodlawn Cemetery, take Thompson Lane (SR 155) headed west. Go through 3 traffic lights and follow exit to Franklin Road (US 31). Turn left on Franklin and head south less than a mile. After the first traffic light at Caldwell Lane, take the first street on the right, Glen Leven. Follow Glen Leven, which turns into Curtiswood Lane. Count to the 4th street on the right, which will be Curtiswood Circle (past Newman Place, Overbrook and Glendale). On Curtiswood Circle, look for the second mailbox on the left, which is 4414. Come to the back of the house. The reception and celebration will be under the carport, weather permitting.

David’s death really reminded me how fragile life is. I am praying for you, Dara, and I know the ATO Brothers of Beta Pi are praying for you and David, may God rest his soul.

FROM BUCK BILLER, June 1, 2007:

"Dear Larry,
I noted that David's email is still in the broadcast list.  I am not sure
the internet extends into the afterlife.  We may want to remove it.
Buck"

RESPONSE TO BUCK:  Thanks for your note - I had discussed this with Dara, and asked her if I should remove David's e-mail address, and she said keep sending it as is.  Dara is a great lady - I plan on inviting her to keep coming to our events, as the Honorable Here-and-Now representative of the Great One, Dom!  ILARAMATOB
