Hi, Baskar.

Great to hear from you, as always. I trust that you and your family are staying well and not stay-at-home a problem.I’m actually in the hospital right now, it’s not been a good week for me. Hopefully, I’ll be discharged tomorrow.As for ScribbleTalk, I’m happy to support you in any way you need.

That’s good news about Nashville. Jane will be there, so you two will be able to meet. It’s a shame that your wife can’t come with you. We’ll work out logistics as we get closer to the date.

Warm regards,
Howard

Tribute from Bid & Proposal Community

My Tribute

Howard was my father figure, my very first visit to APMP Bid Con 2015 at Boston was just to be with him. I was so looking forward to meet Howard at Nashville and stand alongside him at the BD Institute stand. He inspired me to document APMP history and I was so blessed to record his voice as my first Baachu Scribble Talk Podcast guest.

We know he is a light hearted person and his BD – Metrics and Benchmarking tools will be used as long as tenders exist.

To continue his legacy, I dedicated Scribble Scholarships in honour of him (and few other mentors) 2019. Scribble Talk popular rapid fire random Qs will be renamed as The Nutters Round.

As long as I am alive, I will continue to do my little part to keep your legacy forward.

Thank you Howard for everything, you will be deeply missed. RIP Sir
