I am saddened to hear of Howard's passing. My sincere deep condolence to the family. Howard was truly a gem and always a pleasure to be around. I will remember him for his zest for life, motorcycles, and above all His Love for Christ. Know that everyone will be in my prayers. Matt. 5:4
Wanted to express my condolences on the passing of Howard. I had the privilege to work with him for a long time. I enjoyed our discussions about archery and other related outdoor activities. I am extremely sorry for your loss.
Mary Lou, so sorry to read this. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers during this sad and difficult time.
I am Buster's (Howard's) cousin from Festus. Our fathers were brothers. He was my buddy when we were younger. We lost touch with each over the years, as happens. I tried to keep up with him through his sister. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. I will miss him.
