Pritchett. Praying for peace and comfort for
the family.
So sorry to hear of Howard’s passing. Have had the pleasure of knowing him since back in 1960’s when i was working with NAPA. He was always such a great guy to talk with. I know he will be missed by all family and friends as I considered him. Kyle Harber
Barbara and family, Pete left me a VM letting me know of Howard’s passing. I’m so sorry for your loss. Howard and I went back, a long way back. He was a ‘Master Mechanic’ and master of many other capabilities, including body work. Down thru the years, especially when he worked for Blue, he kept my patrol car in top condition and occasionally performed some body and paint work (when necessary) that the state didn’t need to know abou!. Howard was my friend. Again, so sorry for your loss. May God bless each and every one of you as ya’ll move on without him and deal with loss. Regards, AJ Pavliscsak, GSP 690R
Dearest Barbara, I am so sorry for your loss! It was so good to see and talk to you both a few months ago. I hope to see you again soon. Please call soon. I love you and will be praying for you.
