EAST AUBURN – Robert A. Howard, 66, passed away with his family by his side on Friday, June 24, after a courageous battle with cancer.

Howard of Kernersville, N.C.; two sons, Dan and his wife, Kristal (Sam) Howard, Tim and his wife, Marti Howard; a sister, Nancy Douglass and her husband, Larry; three grandchildren, Darcy, David, and Caleb Howard, all of East Auburn; and several neices and nephews.
