I worked with Enie at Nomad/Layton for 10 years. I was one of his supervisors that Enie was in charge of. Enie taught me so much during my tenure there, that there is not a week goes by that I do not think of him. Enie was known for his hard work ethic and attention to detail. After working with him for so many years, you just became close to him and we shared many things including music. Enie told me about a concert at the Fulton Opera House that was featuring Buddy Rich. So we decided to go to it. It was a wonderful evening and it wasn’t too long that Buddy stopped playing professionally and eventually passed away. I would not have attended that concert if it was not for Enie. The Hackenberger boys and I were just talking and decided to look Enie up and go visit him. I wanted to tell him one more time how much he meant to me , and how he shaped my career in Millwork sales. He was a special gentleman , and I will never forget him. I am sorry that we never got to have our reunion, and that I never was able after all of these years, to let him know how I felt about his tutelage. Rest In Peace Enie!

My heart and sincere Condolences to cousin Donna and the Family. I have very fond memories of Enie, even from the first time I met him, back in the 60’s when he and Donna first started dating. While our Families drifted apart over the years, I will always cherish the great memories of him and our Family get togethers. My prayers go out to Donna and the family.

I was a caregiver of Mr. Howry’s at St. Anne’s and he was the nicest man I ever had the priviledge of meeting. Miss him so much already. In his honor, I will do a random act of kindness every day and pay it forward in some way just like he taught me to.
