Dear Lustgarten Family and Friends...
As you probably know I was a friend of Howie's since college at Cortland.  I am just completing an autobiography of my college years and Howie's adventures with me there are mentioned in the book.  Of particular note is the Grateful Dead concert that we both produced that still holds the record for the largest public assembly ever held in the City of Cortland indoors!  We both left a mark on this town and college that will last forever.  The College has also put up an elaborate display, commemorative sculpture ($30,000 plus worth!) and recently dedicated the original piano that Billy Joel played on in the student center (a $30,000 restoration!).   Anyway, if any family or friends are interested in this history let me know!

Hi....I just found out that Howie had passed today.  I must have seen him shortly before he passed and I am so happy that I got to see him one last time.  Howie was always one of the most positive people I knew.  I wish I had been notified of his passing, but I got suspicious after several recent emails with no answer.  I finally did research today as just this past Sunday, April 18, was the 50TH anniversary of the Grateful Dead concert that Howie and I produced. (If you wish to know more about this concert please see this entry on the internet: https://archive.org/details/gd71-04-18.sbd.fink.7112.sbeok.shnf ...you will be surprised...there is blog entry from me too!) I am so saddened by his passing and had to immediately had to write something.  For those of you who don't know, Howie was my co-concert chair at SUNY Cortland and we produced a variety of concerts together.  After Cortland Howie and I also produced a "Buddy Rich" concert on the Jersey Shore.  He was always a great entrepreneur and  am sure he will be remembered for his "Lust" for life, pun intended!  May you rest well old friend!   Best to the family and other friends.   Dr. Jack B. Samuels, Professor of Tourism and Hospitality, Montclair State University, N.J.
