Not sure what to say?

Always a stand up guy. I missed him and Howdy Jr when they left for Florida. Great family, great business, great piece of property there in Apalachin.

Dear Mrs. Jones, Paula (I don't think we ever met but I heard nice things about you), Howdy, Nancy, and Tracy- I remember how nice Howdy, Sr., and your whole family always was to me and how all of you smiled a sincere smile so naturally. What a special family!

My deepest sympathies.

I remember Howdy always having a smile on his face. We enjoyed watching and playing softball when he operated Howdy Jones Ball Field in Little Meadows, PA. Great players, fantastic teams, and his venue was the perfect setting to see family and friends throughout the summer. What fond memories!

Howdy was a good friend and neighbor in both Apalachin, NY and Lakeland, FL.

SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS, what A GREAT LEGEND HE WAS AND STILL IS IN Little meadows.!!
Howdy treated me to a lot of laughs.' I learned from him.
MY Dad thought the world of him. he was a man of his word, I enjoyed his whole family, what a DAD he must have been.
FROM THE KING FAMILY Sorrow for a great man!!!
DAVE AND GAIL KING
