I'm sorry to the Howes family on your loss. I grew up with Scott and he had a great upbringing which was a reflection of his parents.

Gone but forever loved. A grandfather who made time for those he loved. We will miss you on our next card game Grampy.

Dale was a wonderful man. We always enjoyed being with him. He made an adventure out of buying maple syrup up in Goshen, finding a treasure at a Deerfield antique mall or roasting a pork loin to perfection! He relished the little things in life and when we were with him, we did too. His passing will leave a big hole in our hearts. God speed, Uncle Dale.
