What a nice man, he will be missed.
A generous soul, a brilliant mind, and a wonderful family.
I’m so sorry! I remember Henry as a font of knowledge. Just yesterday, thought of something he probably would have been able to explain.
I am so sorry. Good man, great loss.
My heart and prayers goes out to friends and family. God bless each of you
I remember Henry as cheerful yet enigmatic. Mysterious but with a twinkle. I remember Henry and Fern Ellen in Houston as they prepared to leave for Saudi Arabia and Aramco. I remember Peryy, his home town where I visited my Grandparents and his parents. I know that Henry has fought cancer. I know he will be missed by many. God Bless Henry and his family.
Our condolences on the loss of your husband, father, grandfather and friend. May God bless your family.
Amelia and Austin you have our deepest sympathy in the passing of your father and grandfather. Prayers for your whole family.
Ellen and Jocelyn, I’m sorry I didn’t get to drop by on Sunday. Am thinking of you and the adventures you must have had! Big hugs.
For many years, Henry volunteered at Washington Regional Hospice. He did whatever office/paperwork that needed to be done no matter how deep the stack of work to do! Thanks, Henry, for your tireless efforts to help us at WRH!
Thank you for your kind words. Henry loved his Tuesday afternoons in the office and greatly regretted when his health no longer allowed him to volunteer. Ellen
