E Doyle Robison

1927 ~ 2020

Our wonderful father returned home to join his wife and family Wednesday afternoon, July 8th, 2020. He was 93.

E Doyle Robison was born in Fillmore, Utah, May 31, 1927, the fourth son of Aaron Wayne and Fern Ashby Robison.

He attended Fillmore schools and served in leadership of the class of '45. He also ran the mile for the Millard High Eagles, anchoring the medley relay team.

Just 28 days after his graduation from Millard High School he enlisted in the Navy, serving 13 months, learning to be a radar technician.

Four months after his discharge, Dad began a three-year mission to Sweden. During his mission, he served as President of the Härnösand Branch and of the Sundsvall District.
Upon his return to Fillmore, he met Beth Spencer. After a two-year courtship, they were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple, on August 30, 1951. Together, they enjoyed 64 grand years full of family, service and adventures. She preceded him in death on November 27, 2015.

Applying the study habits he had developed in the Navy, Dad graduated with honors from BYU June 2, 1952 and with a Masters of Science in Retailing, from NYU on June 11, 1952.

Dad went into retailing and marketing, taking him on trips around the world, and establishing relationships with leaders in the industry. The capstone of his career was launching Skagg's Institute of Retail Management at BYU in 1976. During his career he moved his growing family to Ohio, New Jersey, Minnesota, Maryland, New York and Utah.

Dad was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served in many positions and was called to serve as President of the England London Mission from 1991 – 1994. He and mom served other missions together, including one to the Stockholm Temple and another to the Family History Library in Salt Lake. He also enjoyed the opportunity to serve as a sealer and as a stake patriarch.

Dad is survived by his five children – Catherine (Dale) Johnson, Linda (Jeff) Woodworth, Kevin (Kaye Cronquist), Stephen (Darby Howse), and Jeffrey (Kimberly Tucker); his brother, Richard (Mary Meitl) Robison; and his sisters-in-law, Joan (Clair) McKee; and Audrey Spencer; 23 grandchildren, 53 great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.

Dad was also preceded in death by his parents, and his brothers, Ashby, Ray and Duane.

Due to restrictions because of Covid-19, a private graveside service will be held. In lieu of flowers, Dad would like donations be made to the General Mission Fund of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Our family would like to thank Trina and the entire staff at the Memory Care Facility at the Sheridan in South Jordan for their consistent, tender care and service for our father which surpassed all our expectations.

Obituary:

Arnold Leroy Howse, loving son, brother, husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather, completed his mortal probation Saturday, June 18, 2016 at his home in Orem, Utah surrounded by half of his twelve children. He won the battle against a fast-growing glioblastoma, surpassing the doctor's expectations by five months.

Arnold was born Friday, December 5, 1941 at his parent's house on Third street in Harbor Springs, Michigan, the youngest of three children and only son of Clifford Leroy Howse and Gertrude Caroline Catob.

As a youth, Dad quickly showed his musical aptitude, taking up the trumpet at the suggestion of the band director, Joseph Jezisek. He played in a dance band and marched in parades as a band member for most of his life. In high school he also played football and was active in other school activities.

It was at High School in band class that he met his future wife, Joanne Marie Heinz. They were married in the Presbyterian Church at Harbor Springs on Friday, September 18, 1959. Together they shared their love of music with their children and community.

Arnold became a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1963 shortly before his graduation from college. He became a biology teacher at Carrollton High School in Saginaw and later taught at  East Jordan High School. He and mom nurtured the gospel in Northern Michigan, where he eventually became Branch President and then the first Bishop of the Petoskey ward.

During the summer, Arnold worked as a fudge maker at Crump's Candies in Harbor Springs. In 1974 Arnold became the owner of the candy store and changed the name to Howse's Candy Haus. He retired from teaching and introduced Northern Michigan style fudge around the country, eventually opening shops in Provo, Utah, DelRay Beach, Florida and finally in Park City, Utah. His son Christopher, now runs the candy store in Harbor.

Joanne passed away in 2006.

Arnold married Janis Heiner on February 6, 2009 in Orem, Utah. Together they adopted Janis' grandson, Taygan.

Obituary

Otsego County Herald Times, Wednesday, November 28, 1928, p. 1:

Another Pioneer
Of County Is Dead;
Lived at Vanderbilt

Albert House died at his home in Vanderbilt, Thursday Night, November 22, at about ten o'clock following an illness, which covered a period of about two years.

Nearly two years ago it was discovered that a cancer was working in his left lower jaw. While every effort was made thru medical care and operations at different times to destroy the dreadful disease, it was of no avail. At times he suffered untold agonies, but thru it all he was ever most kind and patient to those who had the care of him, and made little or no complaint of the ravishing pains and onslaught of the diesaes, until a few weeks ago when he became so much worse that he was kept to his bed most of the time until the end came to his blessed relief.

Mr. House was born July 9th, 1865, at a little place then known as Elk Creek near Brown City in Sanilac County. He was the 4th youngest of the eight children of Daniel and Kathern Snell House, who were formerly of Canada.

He grew to manhood in and around Sanilac County and on October 28, 1888 was united in marriage to Miss Joanna Barrett of Detroit. To this union there were born four children, three girls and one son, all of whom survive.

His wife Joanna died November 2, 1908.

In the fall of 1892, he and his family came to Vanderbilt. He has since resided in or on a farm a few miles from the village, with the exception of about eighteen months spent near New Berry.

James Milton House was the second husband of Sarah but her true love, so she said. They had several children together, lost their first daughter, Eisey, when she was 11. They also raised his son, by his first wife, Raymond. Sarah and Raymond were very close. James worked in the lumber camps in Pellston for several years where Sarah often worked as a cook. Their oldest children were born there. When Myrtle was ten years old, which would be in the year of 1914, her family moved to an old farm which stood at the top of the east hill in Harbor Springs, where the stadium parking lot once stood, followed by the city skating rink and currently is the site of the care facility, Bay Bluffs. Myrtle has told her family that she was glad to be back at the spot where she spent much of her childhood, before the end of her life. From this location, they moved to a 2 story frame house on Lake Road. Sarah told Joanne Heinz that the house was yellow when SHE bought it. She said that their bluff house was really a shack with space between the wood (logs?) and didn't keep out much weather. The only work I remember her saying was to do laundry for the resorters. Perhaps she had earlier income? Sarah mentioned that the Lake St. home had no bathroom, running water or electricity when they moved into it. Her children were enthralled with turning on the lights when they finally had electricity put in. She still had the little hand pump over her sink and the outhouse in the backyard when the Heinz family moved in next door to her. Her entire family stored potatoes for the winter in her Michigan basement.

Myrtle told of her father, James, singing them to sleep often, and telling them stories. She fondly recalled going to the lumber yard at the foot of the East Hill, in Harbor Springs, to walk home with their father. One day, he led them to the edge of the lake, near the Wequetonsing entrance, and dived in. He proceeded to swim to Harbor Point and back. This to the delight of the children!
   
James' death record, in the Emmet County Courthouse, says that he was a machine operator, probably in Lansing, but he was a lumberjack for most of the years he was with Sarah. It also states that he died of aterioschlerosis and that he was 85 at his death.
