Sorry, for the lost of your dad. It's never easy. He was a good man. My kid's and I have good memories of him. I can remember him taking Sharon and I to the bowling alley. My boys growing up at the glass shop with him and dad. The boys got by with lots. Dad and uncle Howard would not let me get on to them. Most the time they had put them up to doing it. Heaven just gain a hard worker and honest man.

Dearest Sharon, Diane, Tommy and Boots,
I was so saddened to hear of Uncle Howard's passing but on the other hand, I know that he has been reunited with Aunt Lawanda, Grandma and Grandpa Ginn, Mama, Daddy, Uncle Leon, Aunt Teen, Uncle Billy, Aunt Virginia, and Aunt Charlene and all of our loved ones that have gone on to their Heavenly Homes. We know that Uncle Howard isn't in any pain and he is reaping the benefits of his salvation. I pray that the Lord will wrap His loving arms around each of you in the coming days, minutes, months, days and years and give each of you the strength, peace in your heart, courage, love and understanding that you need to sustain you for the coming difficult days.
I will be praying for each of you and so sorry that I can't be there with you but I will be there with you in thoughts and prayers. Sending love to each of you....and God Bless and please hold to the happy memories of Uncle Howard, that is what I want to do. I want to see him smiling when I brought him his own coconut cake. Love to each of you Barbara Sue

Sharon, we were so sorry to read this sad news. Jim knows most of the Ginn family and I have met several of them. In fact, your grandfather (known to me as 'Preacher Ginn') was one of the first people I met after moving to this area many years ago. Our sympathy and prayers go out to you, Dwight, and the rest of the family. May God comfort you all.
