Richard Howard Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Born November 22, 1965, in Manchester, NH, the son of the late Charles and Janet (Drinkwater) Howard.
Richard had spent many years working as an equipment operator in construction. Many know him by the nickname of Sleddog. In his free time, he enjoyed riding motorcycles, riding in his side by side, and spending time at camp with family and friends. Richard was a very sociable person who made friends wherever he went. He was a proud father of his beloved son and treasured every moment with him. Richard will forever live on in our hearts and memories.
Members of his family include his son Zachary Howard and wife Eden of Rochester, NH; and his grand-pup Keiko.
A celebration of Richard's life will be announced at a later date.
