Doug was a WWII veteran of the U.S. Army, serving in the China-Burma-India theatre. Our dad could fix anything; cars, plumbing, electrical problems, fishing lines, you name it. He built his first and second homes. He was a great salesman and owned a successful food brokerage company. He was an honest man, a family man, a man that would make you laugh and see two sides to everything.
He is survived by his wife Lupita (Lucila), sister Marian H. Hinckley (McKinnon), son Douglas G. Howard (Katia), Katharine (Kathi)(James) Petersen, Janet (Richard) Grainger, Julia (Al) Dieffenbach, Walter (Haydee) Franco, Leah G.

Harrow, Gordon Howard and his wife Helen.
