Active Day of Owensboro

01/09/2026

It is with heavy hearts, we share the news of the passing of “Big Daddy”. Delbert has had a huge presence at Active Day for 21 years. He was always one to count on for some comic relief. Delbert was a friend to all of our active day family, and he enjoyed bringing in donations for our prize cabinet for our members. He could get everyone excited and dancing if the right music was on (classic country or oldies rock) and he loved to play bingo. He would volunteer to cut out the bingo cards, keep track of the winners, and Delbert loved to help other members win by helping them with their bingo cards. And he always won. We joked that he probably stacked the bingo cards. But however he did it, he made sure his friends won a round every time he played.
Please keep his family and friends in your thoughts in the upcoming days.

View Delbert Lee Howard's obituary, send flowers, find service dates, and sign the guestbook.

As we say goodbye to 2025, we are filled with gratitude. Thank you to all involved for helping make our center such a special place to be.
Thank you to our members for trusting us, to our families, caregivers and case managers for your support and to our amazing staff for their compassion and dedication they show every single day.
From shared smiles, laughter, activities and friendships formed and strengthened, we are reminded daily of how lucky we are to be here. We will miss those that have left us but we will carry them with us into the new year, in our hearts and memories. We look forward to another year of purpose, friendship, and meaningful moments together.
