Marion Dean "Buzz" Howard

In loving memory of Marion Dean "Buzz" Howard. Buzz passed away at his home on December 27, 2017 at the age of 68 years old. Buzz is survived by his loving wife, Janice Howard; his twin sister, Marilyn Schorch and brother-in-law, Rob Schorch; his daughter, Chandra Dax and son-in-law, Tom Dax; his son, Jim Howard and daughter-in-law, Dawn Howard; his seven grandchildren: Jessica, Christina, Maddilyn, Matthew, Makensie, Brooke and Austin; and his two great grandchildren: Kaison and Abigail (on the way). As much as he loved his family, Coca-Cola was a close second and he enjoyed nothing more than tinkering around his garage with a cold one in his hand or watching the grass grow at his mountain home. Buzz never met a stranger and would have given the shirt off his back to anyone in need. His heart was as big as his contagious laugh, and he had the ability to make everyone smile. Buzz was known for his love of the outdoors, his witty catch phrases, his immense love for all people (especially his family and friends) and he will be missed tremendously. We hope he is "busier than a bullfrog in a flash flood" up in heaven and that there is no shortage of cold Coca-Cola. We love you and we miss you more than you will ever know. An open house to celebrate Buzz's life will be held Saturday, January 6, 2018 from 1-4 PM at his daughter's house. If you have any questions, please contact Janice Howard.
