Uncle Howard always conjures fond memories in my mind. I always loved to visit Uncle Howard and Aunt Vida as a child. I remember playing dice with him and taking walks to the park near their house.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family through this tough time. Lots of Love.

Howard was a great mentor and inspiration to me in both my life and my career. He exemplified the highest degree of integrity, fairness and commitment to the task at hand. I will always treasure the few short years I was honored to work with him.

Dear Chris, John, Geri and Karen

Dear Clark family (cousins) - I'm thinking of all of you and am sending my love and prayers. God Bless you all!

Uncle Howard was an amazing man. He and Aunt Vida came to so many of my solo & ensemble festivals when I was a kid. That meant so much to me, and I always loved going to visit everyone in Jackson.

Thinking of you...
Love, Nicole (Nikki) & Sophia Gustafson
