Featured Obituary:
Hon. Howard ("Howie") W. Carroll, age 79, was a born leader, statesman, voice for the voiceless, and storyteller extraordinaire.
He was sworn into the Illinois House in 1971 and the Senate in 1973, where he served for 26 years and authored numerous bills focusing on equal rights and human rights, including the first in the country Hate Crimes bill, the first to include sexuality in the Human Rights Act, and CHIP. He also served as Committeeman for the 50th Ward.
Howie was the Forrest Gump of politics from meetings with Presidents, Prime Ministers, and Mother Teresa, to helping stop the Nazis from marching in Skokie.
Howie was a family man and deeply devoted to his Jewish faith. While his achievements were many, all were accomplished with a keen wit and contagious laugh.
