On Tuesday morning the Central Church lost a special family member. Howard Dodd passed from this life into his eternal reward with his Heavenly Father.
Howard was a man of faith and integrity. He was a man that loved his Father and loved the Central Church. He was a man that loved and cherished his family and loved his wife with all his heart.
When Howard talked, you listened. He was a man of great wisdom. I loved his stories of New Mexico that he shared with me. He loved to travel and enjoyed sharing stories about the places that Doris and he had visited.
I am thankful Howard gave the opening prayer a week ago Sunday night. I always enjoyed hearing Howard pray for the congregation. That last prayer - I will always remember.
We will miss Howard immensely.
We will miss his calm demeanor, his caring attitude and his loving spirit.
Howard, thank you for touching my life in a special way. You will never know how many you influenced in such a positive way during your 75 years on earth.
Enjoy your eternal home with our Father.
I know you are flying high this morning with the angels!
