    Dear Audrey and Famiy. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. Keep the memories close to your hearts. Enjoyed my working days with Howard or as we called him “Preach”. Dean being around some family events many, many years ago, Lois Hart was my sister and could not remember if you would remember me as married name Harman or maiden name Webster. Many hugs coming your way.

    I have many fond memories of growing up with the Hackwell family. Such fun! Howard was always full of jokes and he was the Coolest Dad around Walton as he buzzed around in his shiny blue dune buggy. Thanks for the memories “Preach”

    Audrey and Family: Since High School years, the shared events and memories are too numerous to mention but you must be aware of a lot of them!!!! Howard brought a great lot of joy and happiness to those around him and so many laughs. One of his favourite expressions that I recall was “No problem”. He always had a way of working things through which was one of his assets. For sure, we will always remember him. Special thoughts go to all of you. Carol Baker
