The Howard Family
I have had the opportunity to be raised here in the beautiful Grande Ronde Valley when my parents moved here in 1962 after they purchased a small business. I was fortunate to be raised in our family business and grew to understand the meaning of applying common sense in business. My parents always said that you should treat the customer the way you would want to be treated. I grew to understand these principles and I apply them today in my Real Estate business.
I choose to stay in this valley and to raise my family here also. My wife Deb and I have raised two son´s Dwight and Derek in this beautiful Grande Ronde Valley. Throughout their childhood and early adulthood, we very much enjoyed participating in coaching Little League Baseball, attending school activities and their multiple sports events. This is a wonderful place to live and to raise a family. I hope you chose to do the same.
