It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear father, James Allen Howard, on October 20, 2026, at the age of 99. He now rests in peace eternally with our mother Margaret. 

He is survived by his four children; Bradley (Sandy), Gary (Anita), Pamela and Cynthia, along with many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. 

James is also survived by his siblings Bruce, Mary, Doreen and Karen. Predeceased by his sister Shirley. 

At James' request, there will be no funeral service. The family will hold a private ceremony at a later date.

He really was the best Dad and a true gentleman. We will miss him forever.
