Christopher John Howard

Chris Howard was born on January 13, 1959 and passed away on February 27, 2023 at the age of 64. He was the son of the late Margaret and Gordon Howard, and is preceded in death by his brother Mark Howard. He is survived by his brother Matthew Howard, his two daughters Ellie Howard and Meredith (Howard) Edwards, and numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews, all of whom he loved very dearly.

Having been born and raised in St. Louis, Chris was passionate about the city he proudly called home. This is shown through his work at City Hall as a Neighborhood Improvement Specialist since 1987. Chris loved the St. Louis Cardinals, Imo’s Pizza, and the tiramisu concrete from Ted Drewes. He loved spending time outdoors, cooking for his daughters, and going on road trips. Chris had a sense of humor and a caring, kind-hearted soul that his friends and family will never forget.

Chris is truly at peace. He will be deeply missed by his loved ones and everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him.

All are welcome to attend the memorial service at Michel Funeral Home.
