Kenneth Wayne Howard

ABBEVILLE- A private family service will take place at a later date honoring the life of Kenneth Wayne Howard, 77, who passed away on May 8, 2025.

Ken was a man of quiet devotion and thoughtful routines. He found immense joy in the simple things—Wendy’s Frosties, big breakfast, the company of dogs, and being tucked into bed before sunset. His greatest light, however, was his great-granddaughter Palmer, who was his sunshine on even the rainiest days. He was meticulous in his self-care, a careful planner who always prioritized others before himself. While he preferred not to stray from his daily routine, his daughter Tammy took delight in lovingly disrupting his plans, keeping life just a little unpredictable. His gentle spirit and unwavering love will be deeply missed.

He is survived by his daughter, Tammy H. White and her husband, Butch of Abbeville; three grandchildren, Kaylee Broussard and husband Jake, Kelly White (Reid), and Kylie Langlinais and husband Nick; and two great grandchildren, Grayson and Palmer Broussard.

He is preceded in death by his father, Dan Howard; mother, Eunice Brister; two brothers, Darrel Lee Howard and Galen Howard; and sister, Ailenne Bailey.

Special thanks to Della Hardy and Blanche Miller for the compassionate care provided to Ken.

All funeral arrangements are being conducted by Vincent Funeral Home - Abbeville (337) 893-4661.
