Uncle Howard was one of the kindest loving souls and as ornery as they come! The surprise birthday party that Diana gave me at their house is a time I hold dear!! Even tho I caught my hair on fire! He never let me forget that!! Those twinkling eyes, that grin and his love!! My heart goes out to his family with prayers and love and hugs!!
