I got to know Howie a few years after his graduation from Naropa, and mine a year after his. I was Diane Rudine back then. Howie and I were both looking for a place to live and decided we would do better with a two bedroom place as housemates than each of us going it alone. He worked nights, I worked days and we got along well when we were both home. On one of those nights we had beers and Howie learned I didn't know who Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers were, along with a couple of other musical favorites. He had me lay down on the living room floor just listening to some really great music for hours. For some reason it was a highlight of our time in that place and very special to have Howie's musical tour of some of the greats of that era. We had a very good time as friends in that little north Boulder house.

Thank you Howie. Safe travels through the Bardo. May you have an auspicious rebirth!
