    We were deeply saddened to hear of Howard’s death. The opportunity we had last winter to visit Howard & Suzanne meant a lot to us then, but even more now. As a kid, I always looked up to Howard as one who moved through life enjoying everything and everyone. We grew apart for some years, but I remember him always loving life and family. We had a special visit last winter & I will always remember that positive outlook and outgoing personality that he possessed. Rest in peace cousin, you will be missed by a great many, but you left a legacy of family and friends that are more complete because you were a part of our lives.

    What a wonderful man Howard was. He had the greatest Smile which put everyone at ease.

    We were blessed to have Howard, Suzanne, Tracey, John, and June as former neighbors. The side of Howard we knew was of “Proud Family Man”. He and Suzanne created great human beings of their (3) children, and, also……,Skorsby.

    WE know, as their children were our precious babysitters. Our children STILL ask about them, and they are 34 and 35 years of age!

    Suzanne and Howard purposely created so much fun family time with their children which now leaves wonderful memories of vacations, church times, together times, etc. These memories will comfort this Family Always – with loving thoughts and heartfelt warmth for their Dad and Mom.

    God Bless.
