Uncle Howard, As a child I remember thinking how tall and handsome you were. You had the most beautiful smile, as I grew into an adult I saw a kind and caring man. A hard working man who loved his family, truly enjoyed living. You could do the most amazing things with your hands, rebuild and paint cars. You always had a nice ride! It is with a heavy heart that I have to say good bye . I love you Uncle Howard. REST IN PEACE. Theresa Parnell Smale
