Lovingly remembered by his children Tanya Christine LeBlanc (Dominic Collaco) and Kristopher Howard LeBlanc (Pamela Hendsbee) and always cherished by his grandchildren Ashley Preece and Spencer LeBlanc.

Howard came to Ontario from New Brunswick in 1959 in search of better opportunities. It was in Toronto where he met the love of his life, Beverly and they started their journey together. He was a warehouse manager with the same company for over 40 years before retiring. Howard enjoyed traveling to Mexico whenever he got the chance and was a fan of the Toronto Blue Jays (when they were winning, of course!)
