Barbara, Woody, Kenny, Vera, Joyce, Leonard and Alexa...My heart goes out to you all at the death of Howard. When he wanted to, he could become the life of the party. No matter where he was, he kept God first. I'm blessed to be one of the many that got to be taught by his many musical talents. His heart was pure and full of life. I guess God said he had another sound system and drums for him in heaven. I pray that God sends His Comforter to be with you all during this time. Much love from Anissa and I to you.
Love Carlanda and Anissa Fields
