Bandoo Family - Howard was Benjamin's brother, that made him my brother. I fell for him the minute I met him. Big smile! Always positive... My prayers are with you at this time, may they bring you peace. Magaly, words cannot express my emotions, know that you brought Howard the peace and love he was searching for his entire life. May the love of God comfort you, knowing that Howard is home with our father. I was blessed to know him, and I will pass on his life's teaching to others.

I just would like to say that l know Howard is with the Lord. My prayers go out to you, Sister Bandoo and your family, who helped me when l was a very young man in Brooklyn, your advice to Anna and I prior to our marrige in 1977 has blessed us. Your prayerful atitude at Bkly Tabernacle was an inpiration to both of us . Its now 31 years later and we still have a deep memorey of you and little David (Bless him), Conrad ,
Peter and Howard. Though l had only remembered Howard as a child, it was a great thing to meet him as an adult 2 years ago. Amazing, how time goes by. But from what l have heard, Howard loved the Lord, and was on fire, espispcially these last few months.
Just sevral months ago, one of my freinds told me that he had seen Howard and that he was on fire for the Lord. So with sorrow l say to you Sister Badoo, we are so sorry, but we do understand that beyond a shadow of a dought , Howard is with the Lord. God Bless you and the rest of the family, see you soon.
Love always from Danny and Anna Portalatin

Howard was a dear friend to my son Benjamin and our family, he will be missed. Our deepest condolences go to his mother, wife and family.
God Bless you all, Benny and Rosemarie Santiago, 1174 Astor Ave. Bx, NY 10469.
To the Bandoo Family,
Please know that you are in my prayers. Though we may not be able to see it now, know also that God sees the end from the beginning, therefore, He also sees the outcome and the outcome is always good because He is faithful to His word and always keeps His promises. I know this because he kept me when my husband died suddenly in 2004.
Cry when you need to, laugh when you can, remember always, and lean on the Lord. Know this too, you will see Howie again one day.
grace & peace...
Bandoo Family,
We are deeply sorry for your loss. We are thinking about you during this difficult time. Let us know if you need anything!
With Warm Hearts,
Justin & Ann
