It is with the deepest regret that I inform the VRCC family that Howie passed away at home in Aurora, TX at 7:00 this evening.
Those of you who knew Howie know how much he will be missed. Those of you who didn't know him missed a really good one.
Please keep his wife, June, and their son, Howie Jr., in your thoughts and prayers.
Services are pending.

Prayers for Howie's family. I also never met him but understood he was one of the Valkyrie "Grand Masters". I truly hope he is now riding the twisties with his old buds in Heaven.  Here's to you, Howie!

I'm so sorry to hear of his passing. I never had the honor to meet Howie and I fill that was a lose on my part. My thoughts and prayer go out to his family and friends. May God's peace be with them at this time. I'm sure there's a valkyrie in heave for him.
