Roland Jackson Howard, Sr.

I studied Biology under Mr. Jack Howard at Camp Lejeune High School in 1966. I was not aware of his military background or his continuing education throughout his life. Some of his classroom jokes might raise eyebrows today, but he was a good teacher and a patriot. My condolences to the Howard family.

Mr. Howard [known to me only as Angela's daddy] was a fine man as fine as I've ever known. He had a wonderful legacy in many ways but his greatest legacy was his children and his grandchildren. Mrs. Howard please accept my sympathy and love. We also love deeply all of the rest of you. You have our prayers.

Mr. Howard was a good man he will be missed by everyone my prayers go out the his family.

While I only met Roland Sr. once, I know his son Roland Jr. well, and knowing the kind of man Roland Jr. is shows me the kind of character Sr. had and instilled in all of his children and extended family.
Godspeed Mr. Howard.
