I think June House and her children might have lived in Howard for awhile.  Herbie and Donna went to the Howard Schools.

I remember that they lived in a house in the valley below Cave Springs. Donna was in the same class that I was at Howard. They used to ride the same bus to school. Mr. (Willard?) Simpson was our bus driver. I dont remember the exact years this took place but i think it was around 1964-1965.
