Howard Alan Palidar

1947 - 2016

Howard Alan Palidar, 68, of Lake Stevens, WA lost his battle with Gastric Cancer on December 4, 2016. Howard "Howie" was born December 25, 1947, to Howard F. and Agnes H. Palidar in Brea, Ohio. He was married to Judy in 1994 in Bellevue, WA after a five year courtship. Howard is a graduate of Olmstead Falls High School, served in the USAF and attended Lawrence Tech Schools in Keesler, Otis, Tinker AFB, MS, MA and OK. Over the years he worked at GM, Contract Firms and GE Water and Processing, making friends from here to China, India, Africa and others. Howie enjoyed going to the local casino, building, working in the yard and sharing what he knows to others, and, has also been known to "streak in the backyard", cuz he can. He is remembered for his sense of humor and talents. He always gave of himself and inspired others. Model Railroad was his passion and frequented Broadway Hobby making many friends along the way. Sadly he wasn't able to continue the setup of his train layout, but he knows that his grandson, Cason will have a great time. Howie is survived by his wife, Judy in Lake Stevens, his daughter, Sabrina and his only grandson, Cason of Oklahoma. Howie is being welcomed home by his Dad, Mom and only brother, Tom. In hopes that one day there be a cure, and loved ones no longer go through the pain, please donate to the American Cancer Society.
