Msgt. Charles R. Howard, Usaf (Ret.)

Charles R. Howard, 74 entered into eternal rest on Monday, May 4, 2015.

Mr. Howard was born in Brunswick, Georgia in 1940. He served honorably in the United States Air Force from 1962 until 1994 and was instrumental in ensuring all air assets remained air-worthy. Upon retiring from active duty, Charles continued this career in a civil service capacity. His service took him all over the world, however, Maine (Loring Air Force Base) and Georgia (Robins Air Force Base) remained his favorite tours of duty. Charles was an avid angler that never met a bass he couldn't hook. His Military Service, family, and fishing were his passion. Charles will be remembered for the heart of gold he displayed toward all who knew him.

He was preceded in death, by his loving wife and soul mate, Shirley J Howard; and grandparents, Ellick and Clevel Harrelson.

Mr. Howard's memory will forever be treasured by his children, Michael J. Koloski of Eatonton, Ronald G. Koloski and Sherry Koloski, both of Warner Robins, and Richard A. Koloski (Maria-Lorena) of Grand Prairie, Texas; grandchildren, Shannon Clark (Billy) of Rentz, Tina Hulett of Warner Robins, Matthew Puryer of Hope Mills, New Jersey, Justin Koloski of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, and Venessa Koloski and Veronica Koloski, both of Machias, Maine; and great-grandchildren, Joey Knight of Rentz, Connor Hulett of Warner Robins, Kylie Clark of Rentz, and Brady Clark of Rentz.

Visitation will be Friday, May 8, 2015 from 11:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. at McCullough Funeral Home. Funeral services will follow at 12:00 p.m. in the chapel of McCullough Funeral Home, Reverend Jeff Cleghorn officiating. Interment will follow in Magnolia Park Cemetery with full military honors.

The family would like to express their heartfelt appreciation to friends who helped brighten dad's life.
