Howard Wayne Moody

Howard was born October 1, 1931 in Lolita, Texas to Aubrey Lee and Rozie Lillian Moody. He served in the U S Air Force and later graduated from Lamar University with a BS in Electrical Engineering.

He worked as an Electrical Engineer and Manager for Dow Chemical, General Cable, Temple Associates, Kaiser Cement and Cooper Industries.

Howard is preceded in death by his parents and his grandson, Chris Cardenas.

He is survived by his son, Mike Moody; daughter, Monica Moody Cheek and grandchildren, Erik, Kendall, Matt and Emily.

The family will receive friends from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, May 6, 2015 at Porter Loring North.

My father was a very friendly and personable man that made friends wherever he went. He had a great sense of humor and loved life. He loved to fish, play golf and socialize with his family, friends and neighbors or just about anyone.

He was an avid fan of the Dallas Cowboys and the San Antonio Spurs. My father always brought fun and laughter to any gathering of people.

He was a good father and always supported his children throughout their trials and tribulations. He worked hard and was always self-reliant. He instilled that independence and work ethic in both me and my sister.

He loved to tell stories of his life, and he had many, many stories to tell. He was so proud of his children and grandchildren and always so happy to see us.

I am grateful for all of his unconditional love and support. I have lost a friend, confidant, counselor and a great father. I will miss him and his warm smile.
