    To the Howell/Brown families, and especially to my Bishop, Warren M. Brown, and Missionary Supervisor, Mrs. Aurelia Brown, as well as the parents of Andrew Graylin Howell, Sr.
    My deepest sympathies to the family of Mr. Howell. His face shows so much life, and I know he must have been a lively and much loved young man. I pray God’s blessing as the family heals from this tragedy.
