    An Honerable Man

    I met Howard during the time I served a United Methodist church in Anchorage and found him to be a dedicated activist committed to the idea that when Jesus invites all to the table he means ALL - NO EXCEPTIONS.

    This is my understanding of the core of the Gospel message. Through love we are transformed from the human race into the human family.

    Howard, it is great to hear that you continue to do the wonderful things I knew you to be doing back in the 1980's.

    John
