Thinking of you today...wanted to write you a message. Eric is a grown man now and working. Myia is in college and working on holiday breaks, Blake has finally made it to high school and doing well. I just came home from a deployment it was rough being away from the children but my military career is almost over. No more deployments for me. We all miss and love you and I'm sure you already know everything I have shared. See you soon.

Happy Birthday. The kids are doing OK. Your girls are growing to be beautiful young ladies and Eric is becoming a handsome young man. He misses you so much he especially misses going fishing with you. Blake says she misses your smiles and calling her puddin. Myia keeps her feelings to herself but keeps your picture next to bed. Just know that we love and miss you terribly!

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

We miss you and will visit you on your special day. Another year has gone by and we miss you more than ever. I hope you are happy spending eternity with God and know that we are living day to day with remembering you.

God needed another angel
When He called you home,
I close my eye's and smile
and know I'm not alone.
You're my guardian angel now
Still watching and protecting like you did when you were here.
Oh how blessed you are to have traveled to the place
Where I'll be
When the next angel He calls home is the angel name me.
Thank God that you're now in a place where love & truth really matter.
With more LOVE than words can express - Your Family: Dad, Mom, Diane, Carlton, Dawnella, Carla, Vince, Your nieces & nephews, Eric, Maya, and Blake.

To the Howard family,
Our deepest sympathies for your loss. We will miss John. He was our neighbor and friend. John always had something nice to say, always joking around. John could be counted on to keep an eye on the place when we'd go out of town. My favorite memory of John was washing the families vehicles. I used to tease him that he was going to wash the paint off.
To Jackie, Grandma, Eric, Myia & Blake,
If there's anything we can do for you, we're just next door & a phone call away. Tx2Peoples

To the Howard Family,
I went to school with John and my family lived until this year across from you on Chaplin street. John and I loved to laugh together and he was a very kind and giving person, not of things but of himself and his time. I will always appreciate that and miss him dearly. God Bless You John.

To the Howard Family:
I have known John for MANY years as I was first introduced to him over my Aunt and Uncle's house by my cousins. He was a fun and loving person to be around and made you laugh. He will truly be missed and never forgotten. He is the wing beneath our wings. And may the God strengthen you and comfort you.

Your son was very loving and caring.
There was never a time he came to work @ comcast and didn't make us laugh. He was full of joy. You never wanted for anything,if John was around he made sure you had it.Now god has called him to a better place where he could really be happy. God bless you all and my prayers are with you.

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

The memories I have most of Johnathan is "CAMPING". I still have the photo we took at one of our Kapital Kampers events of he and I and my brothers sitting on a picnic table. Johnathan was always the loud and funny one of the bunch and I remember his crazy laugh. Rest in Peace Johnathan.
To the entire Howard Family - May you find peace and comfort in knowing that Johnathan is in a much better place and that God is with you ALWAYS.
