Another angel is shining down on us from heaven today. Kirt Howell was one of the kindest, biggest hearted souls I have ever known. I cannot tell you how many times he helped me out. The many friends he had was a fine testament to his character, and he will be missed by all of us. Rest in Peace, my friend.

Often recalled the years growing up in Howell Hill running around with Lanny and Kirt. Kirt was so active and fun loving, with a great sense of humor. Really saddened to hear of his passing. My prayers go out to Kirt’s family

Sue, Barry, Cheri and the entire Howell Family you have lost a really great brother, husband , dad, uncle , cousin, and friend.

Sue and Barry and Kirks family, I want all of you to know how sorry I am for your loss. I have so many memories of times in our youth. What fun we all had together. Memories are a gift from God that we can always hold close to our heart. We grew up as “family”. Know you are in my prayers and remember our “good times together”. With much love, Sue
