Good-bye to a Friend

I just got word that Don Howard died in a car accident Thursday night. I'm sure not many of you know who Don was, but I'll never forget him. He covered the Buckeyes as a reporter for the Lantern and later for U Weekly. He was an intern at WBNS-TV, WSYX-TV and WTTE-TV while pursing his degree, which he earned in 2007. Don was always professional to deal with and loved covering Buckeye athletics. I visited his Facebook profile tonight, only to learn that the last item in his mini-feed was becoming a Facebook fan of The Buckeye Nine. It is sad to see him go so soon. He was extremely talented and was very well liked by all. Good-bye, Don. Stay Classy.
