I was so sorry to read of your dad's passing. He was a wonderful father to you. I remember seeing him playing with you kids in the pool while your mom was at work and watching him train Trixie to stay in the yard. He was a great next door neighbor for many years and I know he will be missed by all who knew him. God Bless you all.

It really was a great pleasure to know Howard. We knew him for such a short time but he was always smiling. Howard was one of the most generous, kind and helpful men we had the pleasure to know. He is now safely with our God. He will be greatly missed by those of us who are left behind. Our sympathies are with Peg and their children. God Bless Him.
