Before he moved last year (and before I was released as bishop), Howard was in my ward (Bayside Ward, Fremont CA Stake). He was a master teacher and retired years ago as principal of Hayward High School, Hayward, CA. He always shared his talents with others and was committed to service in our area.
Howard and I greatly enjoyed our joint love of Japan and music and spent many hours reminiscing, particularly about our time as missionaries and our subsequent trips to Japan. I was his home teacher, as well. I will truly miss his gregarious and magnificent spirit. Bp Orion Wood |
