Howard Family

I wonder how many readers remember my father, Lawton Howard (1911-2002). He had an impish sense of humor that endeared him to everyone he met. If you don't remember Lawton you can read about him here: http://www.villagecraftsmen.com/news011805.htm.

This following photo shows his family in Spring, 1912. Lawton is the baby in his mother's arms.

The photo was taken by the corner of my house on Lawton Lane.
