Howard and I became friends when we became MercymountDad‘s. I always thought Howard to be one of the friendliest people people there and always had a smile and a kind word to say. I knew him as a very standup guy whom I had a lot of respect for and was honored to call him a friend.
To Lisa and Nicole and the rest of his family may all those happy memories you shared with this wonderful guy live within your hearts, forever and ever ❤
