Above starting with his name is the obituary for William C. Howell Jr. which appeared in the Free-Lance Star on 7 April 2012 with my mother's maiden name spelled Kohler instead of Koller. I had it corrected on-line along with a correction to my fathers place of birth which was originally posted by the funeral home incorrectly. At any rate Kohler is the original spelling of Koller when my mothers family first came into the country. The above obituary as it appears on this page is without mistakes.
