When our father passed away in early May, we had an excellent experience with Howden-Kennedy Funeral Home. The director and his staff were wonderful. We have absolutely no complaints whatsoever. From the day we met with the Manager/Funeral Director for pre-planning to the day we met at the Tahoma Cemetery; everything went perfectly and we are grateful to Len for the caring, compassionate manner in which Dad and the entire family was treated. We felt as if our father was given the kind of honorable funeral service which he would have been pleased with.

So, today, on Father's Day, I would like to honor the memory of our father with a thank you to Len and all the staff at Howden-Kennedy Funeral Home because this is the way Dad lived his life and would expect us to continue in his place - always remembering to send a proper 'thank you' where it was warranted and this is one of those times. So, thank you to Len and staff from the Howden-Kennedy Funeral Home of West Seattle from Robert and his children. We are grateful for your patience, compassion and for making this very sad time a little less sad by helping to make it memorable and special for the family and friends. God bless you.
