Hi. My name is Meade. I am the youngest son to Howard. I have never had the pleasure of meeting anyone from my dad's side. I have been looking for my siblings since I was 12 years old. I was just a year and a half when our dad was taken from us. I would love to reach out and meet any of my siblings. Thank you to the department for never giving up on his case.

Officer Huang, as the only LOD death in a now defunct agency, you would be unique, but from some of the posts above, you were unique for very positive reasons. We can only speculate and hope that true justice was faced by your cowardly murderers as we acknowledge the 31st anniversary of that vicious crime.

For your loved ones at home, no doubt each day that has passed since has been one of sadness. Time heals all wounds, they say, but some wounds never really heal, they just sort of seem that way on the surface but down deep, they are as fresh as the day they came into existence.

For your professional family, for you and for all our Brothers and Sisters who have gone before us, it's heartbreaking to know that, every day, we wait for new wounds to erupt, hoping it doesn't happen, hoping that "Maybe today, every officer in every jurisdiction and on every job, gets through without a scratch." Even if we don't know you, never met you, never heard of you until seeing this website or visiting the Memorial in D.C., we still hurt and we still mourn your death and celebrate your life. You are family.

God Bless and may you eternally Rest in Peace, Brother.

I never knew Officer Huang. In fact, he passed away before I was born. Every shift, I walk by his photo hung on the wall at our Station, sometimes glacing up at it and thinking about the man I never met. This is just another example in the law enforcement family that our fallen heros will never be forgotten. May his memory live on in his loved one's hearts.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered.

Rest In Peace.

I knew Howie when we both worked at J.C. Penny's. I remember his white volkswagon, and his laughter. He was a very good friend. When I learned of his death, I was in a state of shock. But Howie will always be remembered in my heart, because of his professionalism and dedication to duty. I have comfort in knowing that he is yet another brother of the badge that is guarding the streets of heaven, and watches over those who still place their lives in harms way, to protect and to serve.
May God bless you Howie, you will always be a brother to me and your memory will stay alive. Rest in Peace my friend

I was still on active duty, and I was in the background check process of being hired when Officer Huang was shot and killed.

This month, I was interviewed for an upcoming magazine article. I chose to have the magazine photographs of me taken near the site of Officer Huang's murder.

He is NOT forgotten.........

Howie: I remember you when you used to stop by our station. One morning after working our shifts, we went to breakfast. You bought and I promised to buy the next time. Unfortunately, I was never able to pay you back. I owe you on that-I haven't forgotten, partner. Rest in peace.

"The Badge"
He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.
He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.
Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.
He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.
His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.
He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.
And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.
But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.
Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.
Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.
So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.
In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.
Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.
