Bishop Joseph Lawson Howze, Biloxi’s founding bishop and the first black bishop in the 20th century to head a diocese in the United States, died on January 9, 2019 “While we are saddened by the death of Bishop Joseph Lawson Howze, we rejoice in his life. His was a life well lived in faithful service to Almighty God and to the people of Mississippi, both as an auxiliary bishop of the Diocese of Natchez-Jackson and later as first bishop of Biloxi from 1977 to 2001,” said Biloxi Bishop Louis F. Kihneman III. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
