In Memoriam: Howard Drollinger

I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of my dear friend, Howard Drollinger. Howard was a tremendous community leader whose lifetime of service to Westchester will be felt for generations to come.

For decades, Howard Drollinger defined civic leadership in Westchester. Building on his mother's legacy, he helped give birth to downtown Westchester. Howard always put his community first - whether it was by fighting LAX expansion, spearheading economic development, or lending his name, his time and his resources to community beautification projects.

Howard was a treasure. He left our world a better place.

I will miss his friendship, and we will all miss his leadership.


-Bill

Howard Drollinger was a early mentor of business to me. My dad Sid first met him in 1964, and Howard knew my dad quite well. I first met Howard in 1979. Howard always took the time to talk to me over the years, and to answer my questions to him about business. He was a good man, and a honest man. Howard - we will miss you. Sincerely, Barry Maiten
