Ralph's obituary

On Saturday, December 3, 2022, Ralph M. Howard Jr., a beloved husband, and father, passed away. He was seventy-three. Born to Betty Randall and Ralph M. Howard Sr. Ralph served in the Armed Forces and became an engineer. After serving in the Armed Forces he met and married Vanessa Williams. They were together for just over 37 years.

Ralph was active in his church throughout his entire life.

He is survived by his wife, Vanessa, and children, David Howard, Suzanne Dayton, and Matthew Howard. The celebration of life will be held on Saturday, March 25th at 11 A.M. at the Friendship Church of the Brethren at 217 Mansion Rd, Linthicum Heights, MD 21090.
