    Only ONE Uncle Howard in the world... so very blessed to have been chased with a broom by him after I ACCIDENTALLY broke one of his antique cups! He was such a thoughtful soul...and lovingly gave the GLUED cup back to me when I was much older!!! I'm most thankful for his most precious baby sister (Doris Brown), that cared for him for many many years, as well as other nieces and nephews. I know he was welcomed by SO many family and friends on his special day! Never to be forgotten. Much love, Mike & Joyce
