Hannah, Please accept our deep condolences. The emotional endeavor of converting 50 years of sharing life and raising a family to memories is a slow process of mourning, longing and acceptance. It is a difficult walk on the winding path of life. Fortunately, you are blessed with a family and friends and the knowledge that Howie found peace.
