HOWARD T. HICKS

Howard passed away peacefully at his home with his family by his side on February 27, 2010. His greatest passions were his family, friends, music and his farm; which he farmed in the Marquis area for over 60 years.

My Husband: Our 50 years together were so wonderful. You have been my best friend, companion and my soul mate. My life has been full and complete because of you. The 16 winters we spent in Mesa gave us some of our greatest memories. I will continue to cherish and love you for all the days of my life.                                                                                                                         Love Faye

You can now play your music with the angels. 

Dad: We will be forever grateful for the many amazing years we have had with you. Your love, kindness, patience, and understanding encouraged us to always be the best we could be. You have been an extraordinary dad. Your memory will live on in our hearts forever.                                                                                                                                  Love Lyle (Amy) & Shari (Neil)

Grandpa: Your eyes lit up whenever you saw us. We will remember your smile, your kind heart, and your gentle touch. We always felt special. We will love and miss you always.                        Love Matthew, Mason, Sawyer, Colby, Alliyah and Amanda  

Rest now Grandpa
