The Bakersfield Californian 
Richard "Rick" Allen Howard 
April 4, 1950 - March 27, 2005

A memorial service will be held Saturday, April 2, 2005, in the gardens at 
Mission Family Mortuary, 531 California Ave., at 2:00 p.m. 

Richard was born in Bakersfield, California and was raised in both Bakersfield 
and Victorville. He worked for many years at the Union 76 Station on 
California and Stockdale, and then moved on to become a welder for Ken Small. 
He received his truck driving license and began driving long haul across the 
country. Missing his family, he began working locally, driving for Pence 
Petroleum. 

He is preceded in death by his parents, Melvin Howard and Rachael Bailey; 
brothers, Harold and Gene Russie and his first daughter, Dawn Jeanette Howard. 

Rick loved the desert and the beach. He was a member of the AMA District 37 
and was a Super Senior Magnum. His passion was motorcycles and desert racing. 
He enjoyed his children and his grandchildren. 

The Howard family would like to thank the Desert Incident Response Team 
(D.I.R.T.), the California City Police and Fire Department and a special thank 
you to Officer Jack Craig who was injured while trying to save Ricks life. 
Please join us in celebrating Ricks new life with the Lord. In lieu of 
flowers, donations can be made to the Howard family, through Mission Family 
Mortuary.
