Howie was an energetic, kingdom-minded connector and champion of unity around the gospel. I always came away from every encounter with him encouraged and motivated to live for Christ. He was always a servant and generous ambassador for Christ. His ability to connect and foster relationships and ministry was utterly amazing. I thank God for the dear brother in Christ who finished well and left a trail of goodness and mercy behind him. It is impossible to think of him without joy and I can't wait to see him again in heaven. I pray for his family and for his legacy to continue to bless many more generations.
