In loving memory Howard Fiske Sr.

Donation protected
On March 22, 2024 my mother Brenda lost her husband and soul mate of 53 years. Howard also leaves behind five children who thought the world of him: Melissa, Angela, Christol, Brittany and Howard Jr. He was also adored by every one of his 11 grandchildren as well as his son-in-law Aaron and future daughter-in-law Jessica. 

Howard was born in Van Nuys, Ca. and raised in Bakersfield where he spent most of his life. He raised his five kids there and worked as a body man his entire life, lots of which made it into local car shows and won awards. He made many friends throughout his career and just walking down the street turned a stranger into a friend. He had a creative mind and could turn trash into art, making pictures or swords/knifes out of anything! Even bedframes became shelves and chairs. Your trash was his treasure and would literally be one of a kind. He spent countless hours playing outdoors with his grandkids. He loved his orange tree and would give bags to all of his family and friends including the mail lady. He still thought he was in his 20's trying to go skydiving, moutain biking and anything dangerous that could possibly hurt him, he wanted in on it all, lol.

Nobody who knew our dad disliked him and he loved his numerous nieces and nephews too. Our whole family is devastated by his sudden death and his loss leaves a huge hole in our hearts and lives. Any funds raised will go toward funeral expenses and helping our mother through this terrible tragedy. Thank you for taking the time to read a little about the wonderful man who was our father. Whether you can or can't donate please know that your thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated!
