He passed away on November 15, 2008 in Springfield, MO at the age of 82 years. He was united in marriage to Dorene Williams on October 8, 1944 in Salem, AR, and to this union, two sons were born.

Howard enlisted in the United States Army on August 10, 1944. His duties in the infantry were machine gunner and part-time cook in the 3rd Infantry Division in the European Theatre. Howard was in many battles in WWII and was in the forward division that liberated concentration camps and over ran Hitler's stronghold in Berlin. He would tell of how he carried a little Brownie Kodak camera taking pictures to document the war. Some of the pictures were horrible beyond belief of the stacked bodies and crematories at the concentration camps. Howard had many stories where his buddies were shot and killed right beside him in fox holes and being pinned down under fire. He was awarded the Purple Heart when he was wounded in the Battle of the Bulge. Howard was also awarded the Distinguished Service Award with Oak Leaf Clusters and a commendation letter by General Dwight Eisenhower. After the war, Howard and Dorene went to Wyoming for a while with his brothers, Sherman and Raymond. When they returned to Birch Tree, MO, Howard drove a truck for MFA. He also drove a race car at the local tracks and tried to turn over, which would net him extra money. Around 1948, Howard and his brother-in-law, Chester Grandstaff, began looking for work in Kansas City. They both got jobs working at General Motors Assembly Division, and in 1952, Howard moved his family to Kansas City. Howard worked for GM for approximately ten years until he moved his family back home to Birch Tree, MO for a short time. Howard and his family returned to Kansas City where he began working at Wolf Brother's Laundry in Kansas City, MO as the lead mechanic for their fleet of laundry trucks. He worked there for several years until the company went out of business. Howard began working at Dean Machinery as their Distribution Engineer in heavy equipment sales and leasing. Howard retired from Dean Machinery in 1987 due to his ill health. After retirement, Howard and Dorene built a home Springfield, MO in 1990, where they lived until their passing. Visitation was held Wednesday, November 19, 2008 at the Church of God of Prophecy in Birch Tree, MO from 11:30 AM until 1 PM. Funeral Services were held Wednesday, November 19, 2008 at 1 PM at the Church of God of Prophecy in Birch Tree with Rev. Roger Smith officiating. Interment will be in Oak Grove Cemetery under the direction of the Duncan Funeral Home of Birch Tree, MO.
