Bobby R. Howard

Bobby Ray Howard of Hamilton passed away peacefully on May 27, 2026, at the age of 79, surrounded by the love of his family.

Bobby will be remembered for his humor, storytelling, sharp wit, and the way he could make a room feel lighter with a simple conversation or perfectly timed joke. His presence was one people did not easily forget, and the memories he created with those around him will be cherished for years to come.

A true jack of all trades, Bobby approached life in his own unique way and carried a sense of humor through both the good times and the difficult ones. He enjoyed spending time with family and friends, sharing stories, and the companionship of his loyal dog, Peanut.

His family finds comfort in knowing Bobby placed his faith in Christ many years ago and now rests in eternal peace.

Though his passing leaves a tremendous loss, his memory lives on through his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren — through the laughter, resilience, and stories they will continue to carry forward. He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew him.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Woodrow and Madeline Howard; his brother, Kenneth Howard; and his sister, Charolette Moore.

Bobby is survived by his significant other, Karen Giacin; his children, Leah (Mary) Wiess, Jason (Amy) Howard, and Bradley (Andrea) Howard; 10 cherished grandchildren; 3 beloved great-grandchildren; and his loyal dog, Peanut, who remained a constant companion throughout his life.

A memorial service will be held at Brown Dawson Flick Funeral Home, 1350 Millville Avenue, Hamilton, Ohio on Monday, June 15, 2026 at 10:00 AM.
