Dude, you are so missed around here! Frank intensely misses your friendship and visits. You've touched our lives in so many ways. We miss your smile, your stories and your positive being. I miss you re-furbishing vintage travel trailers at our barn. You were such an artist in re-doing those. I loved seeing the progress day to day as well as getting to help pick out finishes. You gave me the most perfect horse hotel - i see you all over it and feel much warmth in my heart. You made sure I got the best, including your craftsmanship. Howard, thank you for your constant, loving friendship with us over these decades. As both Frank and I have declared many times, you are a very good man!!!  Frank says you were his best friend (besides me of course!) and feels you presence often. oxoxoxoxo

It was a great pleasure to have the opportunity to spend time with you and get to know you. We had great moments of memories together watching and talking about football especially your favorite person Tom Brady. I'm sure it was pleasing to see him win one more championship for your eyes. Well, rest easily my friend for you will be missed terribly and be loved forever.

Howard
How do I start you would say we are related "my grandkids your grandkinds our grandkids" you loved to tell stories as well as fix things "jack of all" I would call you, there wasn't  anything you couldn't fix. You will and are missed but never forgotten you left A big part of your ❤ here until we meet again my co-grandpa and friend much Love to the Family

My Bro,no matter the direction life's crazy roads we'd turn on, our journey never ended. Our relationship grew stronger as brother and sister.no matter what,I knew in my heart you loved and always thought of me as your sister and that meant the world to me, My heart would always smile when you introduce to me to your friends as your sister. I have always known that you would always day or night be there for me and you were so many times. In my life, I wish we could have had our yogurt date again. Or our coffee or lunch I miss our times together we always had so many laughs and so much to talk about. I sit with tears running down my cheeks because I will miss you so so very much and the security I felt knowing you were right around the corner anytime I needed you and I can't wait for the day to get one of your bro bear hugs. I didn't think I could get past my own hurt to write this, But then the Lord showed me that others might like to hear what a wonderful person you were to me. I love you bro, your sister Bobbi❤️

I would like to be able to tell you again of how proud I am of you!
Even with huge hurdles in your way you didn't let them stop you to become a Great Carpenter and Licenced Contractor in two states! (not easy to do)
A Good Conciensious and thoughtful Motorcycle rider and mechanic.
Then, Becoming an airplane pilot !  Wow ! That was so fantastic and seemed 'larger than life' for you, but you wanted it so bad that you dug in and started the very difficult task of learning it all and you DID IT !! You became a Wonderful and Smart Pilot. You even learned how to wrench on our Cherokee Piper airplane as you did everything you drove, rode or flew ....... even with your many complaints you always managed to work it out!
We were All very proud of you!

Tom, it is hard to believe you’re gone. It seems like yesterday that Denise and I took the kids to your house in Riverside to visit. When you bought your airplane and the trips you took in it. It’s hard to believe that you’re not just a phone call or short flight away. However, I am honored that I was able to be with you during your last days here on earth and look forward to seeing you again in heaven. The love and forgiveness that you talked about and the peace you had in your heart and the fact that you took your last steps on your terms. I will always respect those things and love you forever. 

Wow, I can't believe you are gone from us so soon, But I will say that you had the most Happy & Beautiful send off party I could have ever imagined. There was so much love in your room from family and friends all the way down to the nurses that were incredibly Amazing all the way to the very end of your life on earth with us. We are going to miss you so much!!! I love you so much dad and I will see you again one day! :)

To my Daddy...I miss you! Thank you for all the memories. We have talked and argued over the years about a great many things. I truly cherish the last several years where we really listened to each other. You were my earthly father, but you were also my friend. Sometimes, we just needed to tell each other..."everything is gonna be all right." I could really use one of your bear hugs right about now. I will do my best to honor your memory. I love you forever...and ever.
