Dr Howell played a huge role in my growing up. My brother, Mitch, and I were about the same age as his kids, we lived across Wallace Road from the family in the 70's, and I probably still carry some of his dental work in my mouth. I remember him as a kind man who loved to laugh, loved to be outdoors, and would set his empty beer bottles on fence posts while mowing his lawn. That still makes me smile! May the Lord bless the family through lonelier days ahead.

Mary - I lift up prayers for you thanking the wonderful God you and I serve in the life of our Dr. Howell. Lord praise you for allowing Dr & Mary to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary last weekend. That will be a memory that Mary will always hold dear to her heart. The wonderful memories they shared over the years will not be forgotten. God is looking down and saying "Well done my good and faithful servant" . Mary thank you for the loving care that you gave this wonderful friend. Dr Howell will never be forgotten. My prayers will be with you and your family as he is now out of pain and receiving his well earned reward in God's house. Love you all. Becky

Mary and family:

I was deeply saddened to hear of your loss. Growing up, Otto was a constant presence in my life. I will never forget him coming over (almost daily!) to ensure my mom had not wrecked his former garden, and also bringing Chris and me pancakes on Saturday mornings. His love of the outdoors, sports and people was obvious. Whenever a heavy rain rolls in, I will forever think of him and how he would call it a "gully washer." He had a lovely way of getting my brother and I all riled up, and then excusing himself before we could retort; always by saying, "It is time I go home to mother."

While I won't be there to offer my condolences in person, I send my deepest sympathies to each of you.

With love and peace,
Kelly

Mary and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I remember both you and Dr. Howell when I was a patient in the dental office and also as fellow church members. My mother valued knowing you and had she been physically able to convey her sympathies rest assured she would have done so. Please accept this on behalf of her sympathies as well as mine.
