He was very proud to have knownhis twenty grandchildren and two great granddaughters. Howard is remembered for his smiling blue eyes, a love of ice cream, and his playful humour. He often said: “If I had known that I was going to live this long, I wouldn’t have taken such good care of myself’. We are glad that you did! Dad we will miss your guidance and support; your integrity and wisdom. You have provided an enduring example of what it means to be a respectful and caring citizen of the world. You valued and pursued education, auditing courses at UBC into your 80s. Your children, grandchildren, and great granddaughters inherited this vibrant curiosity and continue to learn and contribute. The family wishes to thank the staff at Broadmead Lodge, most recently the caring staff on Birch Lodge (B2), for their gentle and respectful care of our Dad. A private family celebration of Howard’s life will be held at a later date.
