Dear Mrs. Howerter....
Well it's been awhile, but I will always remember how welcoming both of you were to me when Terrie and I were in and out of there as kids. There must have been several times you wanted to throw us both out! You were the best neighbors ever. I'm very sorry for your loss.

I've known Earl Howerter for many years growing up on Asbury as a child. A friendly neighbor, My experiance knowning him was that He was a very sweet man very devoted to hardwork. "Had The Nicest Grass & Roses On The block!" I'm gonna miss seeing him out doing his weekly yardwork, and waving goodbye before him and adeline head off to cripple creek. He will truly be missed by his friends and community. You family is in our prayers, We'll miss you Earl, Always, Catrina Sandoval & Family
