Howard McKenzie Obituary

Mrs Bonnie, Tim, Shannon, Beth and Kids... Wish I could have spent more time with you all thru the visitation and services, but was honored to be a part of the service as we were. We are family and you all are so very important to me. It will be in the next few weeks once all of this activity has passed that you have to try and get back to a usual routine in that you will have to carry on without Bro Howard around. My family and I will keep you uplifted in our thoughts and prayers and know that we are here if you should need us in any way. I Love you - you are all precious to me !

Much Love,

Butch, Todd and Landy

Bonnie,Beth,Tim, and family. Our thoughts and Prayers are with you and the entire family. May God continue to bless and keep all of you in his will.

Beth & Tim, Bonnie Our condolences to you and your family. We will be remembering you especially in our prayers during this loss. Beth and Tim remember even through the loss of your Father remember you have a Heavenly Father to turn to during this time. I pray that he will hold you and your family in the palm of his hand to carry you through. I just remembering meeting "The Mckenzies" not as most people through church or Mr. Howard's work but truly as a family doing family things, and how unlikely as we remember it at a Beauty Pageant. But you were still all there supporting Beth and each other as a true family, which always showed your love for each other, which I know will carry you through this also!

Tim and Family,
We are very sorry to hear of your loss. Your dad can rest in peace knowing that he left things in very capable hands and that ya'll will continue things in a way that would make him proud. We know that God will give you the strength to get through this. We love you all.

Dear Tim, Bonnie, and Beth
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Your family has been there for me and my family for some time now through the years. I went remembering back when I heard of the news when he was pastoring Rock Pentecoastal Church when I was a little girl and all the good and bad times that he got us through.
Just remember that we all are praying for you, and that he is in a better place now with all the people that passed before him serving and worshiping our lord and savior.

To all of you:
So sorry about your loss. Rev. McKenzie was a very compasionate man of God. He will always be remembered for this. He did such a great job on my brother (Wayne Williams) several years back, and took the time for all of us . I never got to hear him preach, but according to my family (Annette Nesbitt, and Margarette Lambert), he did a great job with that too. We are keeping you in our prayers.

To the McKenzie family,

I became acquainted with Howard before my sister died three years ago. Her family and I met with him to make final arrangements. I became a friend of his on that day. He served my family well, and I have made plans to use McKenzie Funeral Home in the future. I know Howard's spirit is with our Heavenly Father now, and I will join him to celebrate homecoming when God calls. May God be with you and bless you now and in the coming days.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Your family has helped us through some very rough times in our lives and we will always remember your love and kindness, but most of all your laughter! We hold you close to our hearts and pray for God to give you the strength you need! We love you very much!

Dear Bonnie and Family,
Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers at this time of your great loss. Carrol shared with me the time that
he was tuning the piano at one of the Funeral Homes. I don't remember if it was at Georgetown or Andrews. He had lunch with you and Bro. Howard that day and he enjoyed the wonderful fellowship that he shared with you. Anytime Carrol was with folks who loved the Lord as much as he did, he enjoyed sharing his faith. Howard and Carrol were precious men of God and we know that they have joined each other in
Heaven by now and all those loved ones that have gone on before them. Howard was a minister of the Gospel but he had a great ministry in the business that he was in. So often when people are hurting and their hearts are broken is the best time to witness to them about Jesus. Carrol went to be with the Lord on 12/26/2008. I miss him so much, but I don't
believe he would come back if he could. The same is true of Howard. The are gone, but they will never be forgotten. They will always be in our hearts.

Ms.Bonnie and family,
I am sorry to hear that Mr Howard passed.He will be surely missed by all who knew him and the ladies at the Answering Service will also miss him,he was a kind and caring man. Tammy Morse and family

Tim and Family,
Your family has faithfully served the community for years, offering love and support to the families you served. It's our time now to offer those same thoughts and prayers to you all. Please know that you are in our prayers during this very difficult time.
