Howie Leess, z"l
Eve Sicular, of Metropolitan Klezmer (a band originally founded around Howie), writes:
I am sorry to pass along the news that our great friend and wonderful musical comrade Howard (Howie) Leess died early Saturday, Aug 23. His funeral was held on Sunday in the Rochester NY area.
It's hard for me to write much more than that right now. I am so glad so many people had the chance to be at live performances he gave so beautifully.
we miss him... a beautiful man; an inspiration to have known him!
Condolences can be sent to: Shirley Leess 174 Brittany Lane Pittsford NY 14534 or by e-mail: hleess@hotmail.com
