I just got a call from a good friend, T.A. Gibson, that our good friend and fellow player, Howard Tate, just lost his battle with cancer. At this time I have no other information available to me. Let's be in prayer for Howards family. R.I.P. my good friend.

I have just observed a moment of silence in dear Howard's honor and memory. He was a good man. His memory and good deeds live on. RIP, Howard, RIP.

I Pray that God will give Charlene,and the family the strength, and comfort that they need in this time of Great Sorrow. Howard can now go Rest High On
That Mountain, and play again. He will be remembered by all who knew him, whether here on the Forum, or in person. God Bless.

I'm so glad we got to say good-bye to Howard before he passed. Charlene has lost several family members in the last two or three years, and has now lost her husband. I pray for God's comforting hand in healing her heart.

Rest in peace, Howard.

RIP Howard. I didn't know Howard except through the forum, but I know he was a kind and generous man. It was so courageous of him to say good bye to all of us here before his journey home.

Condolences to Howard's family and close friends.

I'm saddened to hear this. Howard and myself had many conversations. I guess the last time I saw him was at our 2nd MSP Show in Laurel, MS. RIP my friend and we'll say a prayer for the family.
