HOWARD ASA HOUGH June 9, 1927 - July 21, 2004 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved father and friend. Asa was predeceased by his former wife Theresa in 2003. He leaves his mother Kay; brother Earle (Lilian) son Howard (Carol) daughters, Diane and Helene (John). He will be missed by his grandchildren Daniel, Sasha and Shauna and three great-grandchildren. Asa was a kind, generous man. Although a private person, he had many friends and was well liked by everyone. Asa lived life to the fullest, loved a party and always had an eye for a beautiful woman. He was an avid golfer, some of the best times of his life were spent with friends on the golf course. He was always extremely happy when he played well enough to take their money! He will be greatly missed by his family and friends. At Asas request there will be no memorial service. He will be laid to rest beside his father. His family would like to thank all the doctors and nurses of the Palliative Care Unit at the Vancouver General Hospital for all their loving care. A graveside service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Monday, August 30 at Brookside Cemetery. Friends are asked to gather at the office before proceeding to the graveside. A reception will follow. A charitable donation may be made in his name to the B.C. Cancer Foundation - Cancer Research at Suite 200-601 West Broadway, Vancouver, BC V5Z 4C2.
