Howard joined the Navy at age seventeen and served his country for 24 years. When he retired he went to work at Camp Pendleton Marine Base as the foreman of the Electrical Department. Upon his retirement from Camp Pendleton he obtained his contractors license and worked for real estate companies in Lake San Marcos, where he made many friends doing electrical work under his company Olson Electric. He was always willing to help people out and was often paid with cookies and coffee. Howard went home to be with The Lord on Thursday October 3rd, 2013 after a lengthy illness during which he was lovingly cared for by his wife Joyce. Howard was not always able to express what he was feeling during his illness, but when asked who she was, he often referred to her as his "loving and faithful wife".
Services for Howard will be held on October 10th at 2pm at Mission Hills Church in San Marcos, California (400 Mission Hills Court, San Marcos CA 92069). A light reception will follow in the church cafe. A Military graveside service will be held on Friday October 11th at 11:30am at Miramar National Cemetery (5795 Nobel drive, San Diego CA). There will be no reception after this service.
