K. Gregory Howell
Our loving husband, father and grandfather passed away on Jan. 12, 2013, after a courageous battle with interstitial lung disease. Greg was born on Oct. 16, 1951, in Fort Sill, Okla., to Kenneth and Yvonne Howell. He was the oldest of seven children. Greg spent his childhood in Manti, Utah, and graduated from Manti High School. After obtaining a degree in Finance from the University of Utah, he spent the majority of his career as a mortgage banker. He was a man of integrity and valued honesty in all of his business dealings.
On July 23, 1981, he married Andrea Felt and they were later sealed in the Logan LDS Temple. They are the proud parents of five children. Greg had a strong testimony and faithfully served in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in various capacities. Extremely patriotic, he also served his country as a Captain in the Utah National Guard. Greg was a Commander of Battery C in the 145th Field Artillery Unit and continued his love for marksmanship throughout his life. He also enjoyed volunteering at the Cache Valley Public Shooting Range.
Greg had an unquenchable thirst for adventure. He loved world travel, aviation and riding his motorcycle. He was an avid outdoorsman who loved sharing his knowledge and enthusiasm with his family. Greg also enjoyed hunting; especially pheasant hunting with his dog. Handy with tools, he could fix anything and took pride in quality workmanship. He could often be found working on his Toyota Land Cruiser.
Greg’s greatest pride, however, was his family. He is survived by his wife and eternal companion, Andrea; his children: Megan (Michael) Bennett, Jordan (Rachel), Robert, Lauren, Rachel, and daughters Allexis (Jeff) Owen and Candice (Grant) Beckwith from a previous marriage; 10 grandchildren; his mother, Yvonne; siblings: Deborah Mangum, Cynthia (Matt) Thalman, Kerri (Mark) Rawlins, Kathy (Max) Anderson, Loraine Mitchell, and Blake (Jennifer) Howell. He was preceded in death by his father, Kenneth, and brother-in-law, Mike Mangum.
Honoring his wishes, no funeral or viewing will be held. A family graveside service will occur on Wednesday morning at the North Logan City Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the LDS Church Perpetual Education Fund.
We will miss his sense of humor, quick wit, hugs, playful spirit, listening ear and sound advice. Although we miss him immensely, we know that the separation is temporary and we will be reunited as a family again someday.
