Howard Berg, 93, died June 1, 2022 in Deerfield Beach, Florida. He was born July 3, 1928, in Bangor, the son of Abraham L. and Lena (Siegel) Berg.
Howard was raised in Bangor and graduated from Bangor High School, Class of 1946. Following graduation, he attended the University of Maine at Orono graduating with a Bachelors of Science degree.

Howard loved everything to do with the water: beginning as a lifeguard and swim instructor in his youth to boating, fishing, swimming and spending many summers at Green Lake.
