In memoriam

Mark Howarth, past president, ISA England Section (1997-1998) and group chairman and managing director of KC Controls, Crawley, U.K., died 16 August 2016 after a spirited fight with pancreatic cancer. Howarth started his career as an apprentice at Eurotherm, later moving to Rosemount (then Fisher-Rosemount)\, where he formed many friendships by his grasp of both the technical and commercial aspects of all disciplines within measurement and control. He had the gift of being able to explain simply the principles of (for example) a Coriolis flow and to inspire others to go out and sell. He became U.K. product manager and then European marketing manager with Fisher-Rosemount before roles as sales director of Peek Measurement and managing director of the Platon flow controls division of Roxspur Measurement.

He was an active member of the ISA England Section, serving as a committee member and then president. In 2000, Howarth joined KC Controls in Crawley as managing director and shaped its growth in the 21st century, trying many innovative management theories. He worked incessantly, but still found time for his family, the Scouts, and his church and lodge.

-By David White, ISA England section president 1998-2000, KC Controls regional sales manager 2005-2012
