hi miss mae...our deepest condolences on the loss of your husband...our thoughts are with you...

My Dear Aunt Mae & Steve & Melissa, I have no words to tell you how I feel except that I know you feel the same. Uncle Howard was very dear to me and like a second Dad! I could tell him anything from our pajama parties as a little kid to the problems of an adult and he would always listen and apply logic like only he could. You both have been a huge part of my life and I can't tell you how blessed I am for this. I was thrilled to meet Steve & Melissa and I'm proud to call them my family too!! You are loved very much and thought of often (especially the "homemade cookies" story). Please keep in touch and remember, even though we don't get together often, you are a very special part of my life!

When mom told me that Howard was gone, the first thing I could say was "I really thought he'd live forever." I just came from his service and see very clearly now that Howard will live forever, in all the ways that he has touched us. I had the great fortune to meet Steve and wow...no wonder Howard was so proud of you, you're him. Your words today were beautiful, he would have been so proud to have his boy up there sayin' it like it is. Howard was the most honest man I'd ever known -sometimes a good thing, sometimes a hard thing- and I miss him greatly. Mae, you were the light of his life, he told me this many times. I am so grateful for the moments I had with him, and I can see him laughing at me now for all the tears... The old bugger always did have a way of seeing things in a good light. Mae, please know how much we love you, and how special you are in our lives. I'll ask God to tell Howard not to have too much fun without us. :) Love, -Shelley

Mae My thoughts are with you at this time. I will miss Howards mischief's smile and warm stories, also a thanks to the many hours he helped my sister. Again i have lit a candle here in Howards memory and to also keep you in the light at this time. May you find the strength in all your friends and family. Allan

Mae, I was saddened to hear of Howard's passing. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers at this time. Should you need anything, please don't hesitate to call. Thinking of you, Patty

Dear Mae, Sorry we are not with you at this time, but as know our thoughts and prayers are with you. We will be in touch. Love Ray and Anita

Dear Mae, Steven & Melissa: Howard was a true friend in every sense of the word. If ever you knew someone would be there for you through thick and thin, it was Howard. He would listen, without judgement in such a kind and caring way and would always be there with his handkerchief, if needed. When you listened to his stories, you would be in awe, just to know that he was still here to tell them. My memories of my time spent with Howard will always be remembered in a special way. Good bye my friend. You will always hold a special place in my heart and I will truly miss you. Love Brenda and Dave

Mae, Steve and Melissa, I am truly sorry that I cannot be there in person but I am glad to be able to share my thoughts with you. Howard will always be remembered by myself and my family as a gregarious, cheerful and easy going person. I remember well the many stories he would tell, and look back on our visits to Brantford with a smile on my face. To me, he will always be the father of my best friend, and proof that the acorn does not fall far from the tree. Our love and Best Wishes

To Howard Litt's Family. Please accept our deepest condolences in the loss of Mr. Howard Litt. We did not know him personally but we are friends of his brother, Claude and have heard Claude speak of his big brother fondly.

Dear Mae-Our deepest sympathy to you in the loss of your dear husband, Howard. Also, our condolences to Helen and Claude in the loss of their brother. We have fond memories of Howard, dating back to family visits in Palmerston at Norman and Dora's home. We are thinking of you at this time of great loss.

From what little time I knew Howard, he was a man with many talents. One of them was his great story telling of when he was in the war, another would be his sense of humor. Farewell my friend, a hero has fallen, but will not be forgotten.

Howard will be sadly missed by many, the things that l remember Howard enjoyed talking about was, being a survivor of the Second World War, the adventures he and Mae had while owning their business and most importantly his family, and his love and devotion to Mae. Howard will be remembered as a survivor and a courageous man whom was very kind and thoughtful. He won't be forgotten.

My Dear Mae: I am so very sorry. We have not only lost a cousin but a dear, dear friend. Howard was a very special person and will be missed by all who knew him. Our love to you and yours..... May God Bless...... Lenore and Family

I am sorry to hear the sad news. Howard was always a great friend to my mother and will be missed dearly. In the short time I shared with him he was wonderful to be around and very kind. I wish I could express more, but I am not so good at this. To the point I am shaken by the news and wish everyone the best through this time. Please take care and know my thoughts are with you Mae.

Our deepest sympathy. Howard will be deeply missed by us all. You were kind and hospitable when we came to visit you in Brantford. Our girls sat and listened to your stories in awe and loved you dearly after only short period of time. It seemed as Howard and I walked down the path, and graduated to our December lives, the closer we were. I observed Howard during my life with him and he was my kind of man - tough, yet loving, adventurous, yet cautious, an infectious smile and personality, could spin a yarn with consistency and accuracy. There were no enhancements required, as the story was extremely captivating without embellishments. Through your kindness and thoughtfulness, you re-united the nieces and nephews. Had you not invited us into your home, we would not have re-kindled our youth. You will be missed by Helen, your Sister and my Mother. She made a point of telling me of the times of her youth spent with you. We still remember the Family gatherings at your Mother's house where we were all considered one big Family and shared precious moments. My Father talked about you and I know you have joined him now. Look down on us all, as you will always be with us.

Although I've only known Howard for a short period of his life, I will however, remember him for his jokes, his laughter, and his good sense of humour. You will be missed Howard. My condolences go out to you May and Family. God Bless. Nicole
