Howard was married to my wife Ruth's Aunt Leona, and we have known him for 30 years or more. What a fine, gentle man he was! We were privileged to be his friend and neighbor for the past five years. He will be sorely missed!

Please express our sympathy to the rest of the family. You are all in our thoughts and prayers during this time of loss. May God's peace and comfort be with you. Susan Smith Shryock

Uncle Howard certainly was a treasure. He lived through the history of the 1900's Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), WWII, dust bowl, depression, and it made him strong and yet very sweet, too. He said he really liked working for the CCC because the food was so good and plentiful. Our family will miss this Patriarch and fondly remember his stories. My favorite is the one when he was carrying his pool stick case while walking to the senior center. The police came up along side him , suspicious it was a weapon ... it made the newspaper. I really paraphrased that but you get the idea.
