Obituary

Howard Gordon Maahs

NEWPORT NEWS - Howard Gordon Maahs, 67, died July 2, 2006 at 5 p.m. surrounded by his family at the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond after a nine-year battle against an aggressive form of prostate cancer.

Born in Los Angeles, Calif. on May 16, 1939, Dr. Maahs was the son of the late Willis George Maahs and Katherine Louise Melvin Maahs. He was preceded in death by a daughter, Loretta Carol Maahs. He is survived by his wife, Dola Jean Haracivet Young Maahs; his brother, Robert Willis Maahs of Hortonville, Wis. and four children, Kendra Louise Lacy and her husband, Chris Lacy of Woodbridge, Va., Jennifer Paige Zettler and her husband, Chris Zettler of Oakton, Va., Cynthia Jean Morath and her husband, Ray Morath of Reston, Va., and Gordon Lewis Maahs of Washington, D.C., and by his two step-daughters, D. Leslie Young of Kitty Hawk, N.C., and Kelly Elizabeth Young of Alexandria, Va. He is also survived by three granddaughters, Loretta Lacy, Susanna Lacy and Annabel Lacy; plus many cousins, nieces and very dear friends. He was above all a devoted family man, kind and caring of others, to family and non-family alike.

He was raised in Los Angeles until, at age 16, he entered Stanford University where he received a BS degree in Chemical Engineering. Thereafter he earned his Ph.D., also in Chemical Engineering, from the University of Washington, Seattle, Wash., where he met and married his first wife, Carol Larson, mother of his five children. In 1964, he relocated to the Peninsula to take a position as a research engineer with NASA-Langley Research Center. After 35 years with NASA, he retired in 1999 as a branch head for advanced materials development.

He attended Warwick Memorial United Methodist Church and various other churches in his continual search for religious understanding and spiritual fulfillment. Special interests included religious thought and natural philosophy, fine art, music (self-taught in five instruments), travel, skiing and genealogy. His most recent passion was that of documenting the lives and times of all his European ancestors before and after they immigrated to America.

The family will receive friends from 7 to 8:30 Wednesday, July 5 at Altmeyer Funeral Home in Denbigh. A funeral service will be conducted at noon Thursday, July 6 at the same location. Burial will be at Peninsula Memorial Park directly following the service. The family extends thanks to the doctors and nurses at the Medical College of Virginia for their compassionate and superior service. Special thanks to those in the ICU and the Palliative Care Unit. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions be made to the Prostate Cancer Foundation or other organizations that aid in the search for a cure for prostate cancer.
