The Kentucky death index lists Harvey D. Howard, age 85, died 4 Jan 1960 in Montgomery Co.

There was another Harvey Howard, born 16 April 1879 in Elliott Co., son of Montgomery Howard and Anna Adkins, who married Mary Elizabeth Brown, and often listed his age very roughly, so be careful not to get them confused. (I’m primarily interested in the other one, due to the Brown link, but I’m entering both of them into my database to document which records belong to which.)
