Thanks for the ride!

Message: God graces the church with special people who possess a meek and quiet spirit. Such a man was Frank Howard. His life touched so many. I recall him as an humble prayer warrior and a man dedicated to God. His work at the White Wing Publishing House was a great asset to the church. It is my prayer that Sister Howard will be comforted and blessed as she awaits her time to join her beloved husband. Our thoughts are also toward Bishop Randell Howard and Sister Cathy Creasy and their familes as they mourn the loss of their father and grandfather.

Message: Dear Elva, Randy, Kathy;
We want you all to know our hearts are with you as we hold you up in prayer before the Lord during this time. At first when we heard that your precious husband, and father had passed on our hearts were saddened. But then a wonderful spirit of comfort and rejoicing came upon us as we recognized that Frank Howard just received what he had been working for, for so many years.
It is we that are left to contine on this road that feel the loss; but we take great comfort knowing it won't be long and we will be reunited together once again.
Just want you to know we are holding you before Jesus today.
God Bless You,
Jerry & Sonja Wood

Message: You are in our hearts, thoughts, and prayers as you adjust temporarily to a different arrangement of family. I have sweet memories of hearing Bro. Howard praying and have envied such a relationship with the Lord. Such a legacy is the greatest inheritance one can leave behind; far beyond earthly riches.

With grateful appreciation & loving sympathy,

Message: Dear Sister Howard, Randy & Kathy and family,

It was with some shock and sorrow that we learned of the passing of Brother Howard. My latest inquiry as to his condition was at the Youth Conference in Pittsburgh. Randy expressed that his Dad was doing quite abit better after a prayer meeting.

Of course we are never ready for these things and upon hearing about them a flood of memories keeps coming back. I was privileged to work in the Publishing House with Brother Howard from August 1964 to March 1970. He was to me a good friend and a great help to a young man coming to Cleveland. I sang with Frank in the VOS Choir and Gerry and I have spent good times at the Howard house. Sister Howard you are in our prayers and we are also praying for the entire family. What a great privilege to know and call a friend, a man like Frank Howard. God Bless, Joe & Gerry Parker

Message: Bro. Frank Howard was and is a great man in my mind. He always impressed me with his quiet manner and sincere heart. I remember just a few years ago teaching him how to run the computer for an off-site bookstore event. Although, it was tough for him he always gave it his best. I hope I am as willing to learn and give my best when I get to be his age. I pray the Lord continues to give you peace during this time of loss.
