His optimism and positive outlook on life are what we will remember, as well how he cared deeply for his Family and took care of his dear Mother.
"I will miss our talks and your gems of advice Howard. There will be a big gap where my brother was there to confide in and reminisce about the old days, in Duvernay and the cottage in Saint Michel des Saints, among others."
"You went to sleep, through the eternal doorway, and awoke in Heaven. Such joy and peace in Jesus’ presence.
Forever in our hearts. We will always love you.
Godspeed and bless you Howard."

Gods Garden
God looked around his garden,
And found an empty place,
He then looked down upon the earth,
And saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you,
And lifted you to rest,
God's garden must be beautiful,
He always takes te best.
He saw the road was getting rough,
And the hills were hard to climb,
So he closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered "Peace be thine".
It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didn't go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.

La vie est comme ça. Nous sommes des passagers, chacun de nous peut suivre le chemin de la mort. Selon l'Ecclésiaste, il y a un temps pour rire, un temps pour la joie et un temps pour pleurer. En cela, ce qui fait partie de la vie des hommes. Mes condoléances à toute la famille et aux amis proches. Mme Kerline Glaude
