John Hall Howard

Let me add my belated sympathies to the extended Howard family. Jack, then at Sohio/BP was instrumental in providing technical and financial support for my PhD field work. Over the subsequent years, I was always happy to run into Jack at professional meetings. Most recently, he shared his technical writing expertise on a number of geologic projects. I am very sorry to lose his support and good cheer.

I was baffled when I found out earlier this week that Jack has passed away. I have good memories of working with Jack, always a pleasure and I learned quite a bit from him.

Jack was a consummate professional in my dealings with him at Halliburton. He was always gentle, had kind words for his coworkers and did outstanding work. His Halliburton family will surely miss him. May his family and friends find strength in dealing with his untimely demise.

May Jack's family and friends find peace and strength in dealing with his passing. My prayers for solace go out to them at this time. While Jack was chairman of the Technical Paper Review Board at Halliburton in Houston, I worked closely with Jack on many occasions, and always found him to be practical, efficient, dedicated to doing things "the right way," and quite simply, a pleasure to work with. He will be missed!
