Maurice Howard

We are sad to announce the death of Maurice Warren Howard of Brigham City, UT. Surrounded by his loved ones, he passed away on October 8, 2022 at the age of 80. Maurice was born September 21, 1942 in Brigham City, UT to the late Jess Howard and Helen Howard Jorgensen. He proudly served in the United States Navy and the United States Marine Corp during the Vietnam Era from 1960 to 1964, when he received his honorable discharge. Maurice lived a simple life. He loved his boxer dogs, and after their passing began caring for feral cats. He always had an unfinished project laying around, whether it was a home renovation or the vehicles in the driveway he planned to someday rebuild. He was always a jokester and could tell the same story multiple times with new enthusiasm in each rendition. Maurice will be most fondly remembered for his love for his family. He enjoyed going to the car show and Peach Days with his grandkids and was known for giving the most random gifts. Maurice is survived by his son, Daren (Shaun) Howard and daughter, Tami (David) Moses. He is also survived by his sister, Shonna (George) Dawson, 4 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren, and his very dear friend, Carolyn Sever. He was preceded in death by his parents, twin sisters who died at birth, and his brother, Larry Howard. We would like to extend our gratitude to the staff at Ogden Regional Medical Center for the compassionate care they gave him, and his family, during the final week of his life. Graveside services will be held on Thursday October 13, 2022, at 11am. at the Brigham City Cemetery. Friends may visit with the family from 9:00-10:30 AM prior to the service at Gillies Funeral Chapel at 634 East 200 South, Brigham City, Utah 84302.
