Howard W. Alton, Jr.
April 22, 1937-September 6, 2009
Rogers, Arkansas
Howard W. Alton Jr., 72, of Rogers, AR died Sunday, September 6, 2009 in Fayetteville. He
was born April 22, 1937 in Chicago, IL to Howard W. Alton, Sr., and Lorraine Busse Alton.

Howard W. Alton had numerous interests throughout his life. As a banker for Arlington Park
Racetrack in Chicago and with his partnerships in West Point Thoroughbreds, Howard was
able to mesh his love for horses with his work. Later in life, Howard became an entrepreneur
in the stock market. As much as Howard liked seeing his horse win by a nose, he also liked
seeing his stock investments 'cross the finish line.'
Howard was also an avid Arkansas Razorback fan. No matter if it was basketball, baseball, or
football, Howard was always there to cheer on his beloved Razorbacks…that is, of course,
unless they were playing the Citadel. As a proud 1959 graduate of the Citadel, Howard’s love
of the institution could not be superseded by even his Razorbacks. However, Howard did
compensate for this bias by creating a scholarship for Arkansas students to attend the Citadel.
Howard could find a friend wherever he went…even if they were meeting for the first time. It
was as a community group leader at Fellowship Bible Church; however, that Howard found
some of his dearest friends.

Howard is survived by his wife Dana Alton of the home; two brothers Lewis Alton and wife
Debbie of Traverse City, Michigan, Jeff Alton and wife Jessica of New York City, N.Y.; nieces
and nephew; a step daughter Taryne Tovar and her husband George of Minneapolis, Minnesota;
one step-son Brannon Dixon and his wife Meredith, of Louisville, Kentucky; one grandson
Aidan Dixon of Syracuse, New York, and two granddaughters Peyton Dixon and Makenna
Dixon, both of Louisville, Kentucky. Howard was preceded in death by his first wife Marietta
V. Alton on April 5, 2004.

A memorial service will be 10:00 am Friday September 11, 2009, in the Training Center
Sanctuary of Fellowship Bible Church of Northwest Arkansas with Pastor Robert Cupp and
Pastor Mickey Rapier officiating. Inurnment will be in Martin cemetery near Larue, Arkansas
at a later date.

Springs, his sons Jeff Inlow of Springdale, William Inlow of New Orleans, LA and William’s

Cave Springs. After graduating high school and attending the University of Arkansas Medical
School, he joined the Air Force. Charles had a distinguished and decorated career in Vietnam,

for others and saving lives spanning over 35 years. Much loved by his patients for his caring
and unassuming manner, and his co-workers for his talents and commitment to enriching the
lives of others, Charles will be greatly missed by all who have come in contact with him over

beloved grandchildren Lee and Will. He was also committed to continuing his family’s tradition
of farming; when not at work at the hospital, he could likely be found on the family’s farms
baling hay or working cattle. He always felt that it was important to maintain this lifestyle, as it
served as a constant reminder to the person he really was - committed to a life defined a
tremendous
work ethic, being focused on his family, and making a difference in the lives of others. For
someone who led a life marked by many accomplishments and whose career presented endless
complexity, these were the simple ideals that formed the basic principles of his life. He will be
deeply missed by his family.

Continuing in his tradition of helping others, the family requests that in lieu of flowers, please
send memorial contributions for the Dr. Charles Inlow Cardiology Scholarship Fund. For these
memorial contributions, the family has designated a scholarship fund with the Mercy Health
Foundation of Northwest Arkansas. Trustees of the Dr. Charles Inlow Cardiology Scholarship
