Howard Wayne Lyon

This news saddens me so much. While I haven't had the chance to see Louise and Howard for several years, I so enjoyed the many, many holidays we use to share together - back from when I was in high school. I remember when Louise first brought Howard to our house for Thanksgiving and my dad and I played tennis with both of them. I remember many evenings playing "Oh Hell" and Hearts at their house in Fountain Valley. I remember how exuberant Louise was when she got her rainbow tennis bracelet in Hawaii and how proud Howard was that she was so thrilled. I will cherish the many, many memories I have with both of them. They brought such joy as an extended part of our family for many years and they were and are like an Aunt and Uncle to me. Sending you all prayers as you adjust to this loss.

We will always remember the fun times we shared, especially going to Niko Niko in Redlands. When Wayne and I married, Howard took beautiful pictures at our wedding and delivered them to our home the day after. It was such a thoughtful gesture. We will miss your smile. Wayne and Cheryl Staples
