A Great Man Has Fallen:
Our daddy, MELVIN E. HOWARD, was the patriarch of the family. He was a wise, hardworking and loving person. If you ever met him, he would have left an unforgettable imprint upon you. He was a God fearing man who always spoke about his Savior. He loved his family unconditionally and always had words of encouragement to his children. A link in the chain has been taken away, but this is only to bring us closer together. He will truly be missed by his friends and love ones. I know that he is now resting in the arms of our Alpha and Omega.

It is with our deepest sympathy that we must share the loss of your loved one. Emma, we love you and we are here for you with whatever you need to make this time easier to bare. We witnessed the closeness that you and your 'Daddy' shared and it was something to behold. Cherish the memories and nurture the love.
