It was a privilege to know Howard he was such a lovely man. It is so sad that he suffered during the last few months of his life. R.I.P Howard and sending my sincere condolences to Steph and the family thinking of you all at this very sad and difficult time

I was so very sorry to hear of Howard’s passing. Though I only met him a few times many years ago, he left a lasting impression on me — such a kind, genuine man with a calm strength and a gentle way about him. There was a quiet warmth in the way he spoke, and it was so clear how much he loved and cared for his family.

I remember thinking even then that he seemed most at peace when surrounded by those he loved — full of quiet pride, humour, and that unmistakable sense of family connection that defined him. It’s easy to see his influence in Danielle with her warmth, love and kindness.

My thoughts are with Danielle, her mum, and all the family at this incredibly difficult time. I hope that the many wonderful memories of Howard — his laughter, his strength, his love — will bring comfort and remind you all just how deeply he was loved and respected.

Rest peacefully, Howard. A true gentleman who touched many hearts and will never be forgotten.

It was a privilege to know Howard and be part of his share group. There are some people in life whose friendship makes you a better person and Howard was certainly one of those people. His kindness, encouragement, cheerfulness and trust in Jesus was infectious. We will miss you Howard and you will be remembered in our share group when we reminisce about you . Love Pam and Steve
