Michael Howell Obituary

Mike, I know you are with the lord and you know how much all your friends and family love and miss you. You are in a better place, and I know we will be one day walking together again.

A year has pass and it's still hard to believe that you are gone. We miss you dearly. Not a day goes by that we don't think of you. We love you Michael.

Your cousins,
Miriam and Danny

Friends who die are not really gone, but go to a place that is something like home, here they sleep the deep sleep, as quiet as stone, until we can join them when our lives are done. Friends who die are not really dead, but just like good children tucked into bed, wait the long wait while we go ahead until our tales are all told and our tears are all shed. Friends who die feel no pleasure or pain in the place where they wait till they see us again, and all of us dance in a world washed with rain here the sun shines so brightly no sorrows remain. Mike, we love you and miss you so much...I know your watching over us (Our Precious Angel) you will NEVER be forgotten. No worries Hanna and Nessa are fine, I’ll always be here by there side...

"BIG Mike" I miss you big dog, may you rest in peace and be assured your baby is in good hands. Though we never got a chance to ride, we can run it on the other side! love you bro.

TO MY HUSBAND MICHAEL SILAS HOWELL AKA "BIG MIKE". YOU HAVE BEEN A PART OF MY LIFE FOR 8 YEARS, I CAN STILL REMEMBER THE FIST TIME WE MET, THE TIME YOU ASKED ME OUT AND THE TIME YOU ASKED ME TO BE YOUR WIFE. THE PERSON THAT YOU WERE I WILL NEVER FORGET A FRIEND AND HUSBAND THAT WAS LOVING, FUNNY, GOOD-HEARTED AND MOST IMPORTANT A GREAT FATHER. WHEN I LOOK AT JANESSA ALL I CAN SEE IS YOU IN HER. I KNOW YOU ARE IN A BETTER PLACE AND WITH YOUR MOM AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT EVENTHOUGH YOU ARE GONE YOU WON'T BE FORGOTTEN. SO YOU KNOW JANESSA WILL KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND THERE ARE PLENTY OF PEOPLE THAT WILL MAKE SURE OF THAT AND BE THERE FOR HER SO YOU WON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. (ESPECIALLY HER 1ST DATE.)I WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY FOR BEING THERE AND PAYING THER RESPECTS TO YOU AND TO ME AND JANESSA. YOU ALL ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED. JANESSA AND I LOVE AND MISS YOU VERY MUCH.

You were a great friend to me and were always there when i needed someone to talk to or when i just needed a good laugh. I still cant believe your gone and will alway keep you in my heart. Thank you for everything you have done for me and for just being you. The fun, silly, caring , warm hearted , happy mike i will always remember. You were a great man that everyone will miss. But we know you are in heaven with your mother watching over your family. My deepest condolences go out to Johanna and Janessa, the two most important and loved people in his life.

Mikey,
I can't believe your gone. I miss you so much. You were like my big brother. You always watched me for Richie. I miss you standing next to me at Tonik. I miss you dancing with me. May you rest in peace. We all love you.
Love You,

Mike, you are missed by many. You put smiles on a lot of people's faces. You were a great friend that will always be in our hearts.

We would like to thank all of you who joined us at Ravenswood Baptist Church for Michael's Memorial Service. What a VARIETY of Friends Michael had! Everyone
is experiencing a deep void of the loss of Michael's life. We all loved the joy he brought with his smile, his laughter , and his presence. Only the Lord Jesus Christ can give us grace at a moment such as this. If you have any questions about your salvation, please contact us at The church. To Johanna, Janessa, and Michael's many friends we send our prayers. We know Michael's mother - the Late Miss Edna would tell you all "BE GOOD- GO TO CHURCH - And DRINK ONly Milk!

Love, Michael's Wicked Step-Aunts

Mike - you'll always be missed, for your laughter, and silliness, but mostly because of how you were always a good friend. See you on the other side! Prayers and well wishes to your family.

My family would like to express our gratitude to those of you who loved our nephew Mikey. We heard many things said about him this weekend and we are glad that everyone hasgood memories. We also have wonderful memories of Mikey, but our memories are of the baby, the child, and the young man that Mikey was. Mikey was always loving and loved by his family. We have memories of birthdays, Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter. We have memories of his first day of school, of Mikey in church on Sundays and Wednesdays, of Mikey in the Youth Group at church and of Mikey as a man at the altar praying . I want Mikey's friends to know these things about Mikey because he would want you to know them also. He would want you to know that he was a born again believer and that he is now in the presence of the Lord and he would want each of you to one day be there with him.

We love you Mikey,
Auntie Ann and Unca Jorge

Mike, when the sun shines i know its your smile, when the wind blows i know it's your laughter. The Lord bless you and keep you.

Johanna & Janessa,
God has taken Michael from you for a reason we do not know why. Please let God take care of both of you. He will keep his arms around and comfort you. Death is a part of life and Michael lived and died. He will live in Janessa and all you have to do is ask God for his help. and tell Janessa about her Grandmother (MS Edna) she was a women of life and love her son and God. She would have been proud of you and Janessa.
May God Bless and keep you safe. You are in my prayers.
Barb Johnson, Marie and McKenzie Johnson.

We are very sorry to hear about Mike. May God bless & guide you & your family in this time of sorrow.

You were taken from all of us to early. You will always be with us Mikey. I'd give anything to hear you call me minnie-me just one more time... We will miss you.... Teach the angels up there how to do the bus-stop!

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
