Howard was an amazing advocate for animal rights.  He had so much empathy for any animal in danger and wanted to help in any way he could.  Along with being so missed by his family and friends the animals have lost a great activist.

I met Howard Leo at Boca Pointe Athletics Center back in 1988.  
He was a great squash player and always supported the leagues and tournaments.  Always remember him bringing his daughters to the squash matches.   Miss you brother, see you on the other side.

I knew Howard as our daughters were friends and played soccer together. He was a person that I know loved his family and did everything he could do for them. He was a family man. I enjoyed the soccer trips we took and hanging out with him, he also made a mean drink especially "Sailor Jerry " rum and coke.  He was a great athlete and good poker player as well. I was sad to learn of his passing and my prayers are with his family.

Howard was always sharing petitions for animal rights.  He cared deeply for the welfare of animals and had great empathy for their plight.  He was a kind man and the world will be a sadder place without him.   May his memory be a blessing for his family and friends.

We have known Howard for many years.   The news of his passing has been devastating.  We considered him a friend.   My mother-in-law always used to tell us stick with Howard and you won't go wrong.  Whatever company Howard went to, we gladly went with him.    He was always kind, great to talk to,  and extremely patient.   He was so proud of his family.   His passing is a tremendous loss.  May he rest in peace. 

Had the great privilege to meet Howard in 2017 at my firm he worked right next to me. He was very good at his profession. He really helped my business at the time have success from some good guidance and great trades. My condolences to his wife and daughters.

Angela and family,
We are saddened upon hearing of Howard’s passing. We remember him as kind, gentle, and such a proud husband and father. May God’s peace be with all of you. 

We first met Howard at his home celebrating his father’s 90th birthday.  His aura was loving and gracious with a hint of humor.  He was easy to talk to and had such a great smile.  It was quite apparent that family was all important to him.   We have been lighting candles at our church for some time for Howard and his family.  He will remain in our thoughts and prayers.   God has chosen to give Howard eternal peace.  As days pass,  may his family find their peace with the beautiful memories he left behind.

Lovingly, Linda and Pat

Howard was a great person. I have had the pleasure of knowing Howard for a few years. He was very positive and never complained. 
My heart goes out to his wife, family and friends.
Wishing you peace and strength during this difficult time.



Howard was a wonderful man.  I've known him for over 20 years at different firms.  It just breaks my heart that he had to deal with this.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family at this difficult time.


It was a pleasure to work with and get to know Howard these past few years. We had many talks about life and family. He was upbeat and positive for his family and so wanted to beat this. My thoughts and prayers to his family during this difficult time.

I new Howard through Mel Monczak and Jerry Goldberg.  My prayers go out to his family and friends.  He was a kind, caring and genuine man.  I always looked forward to our time together.
