Nancy,
I am so very sorry to hear of Bill´s passing. Larry and I loved running into him and "the guys" once in a while when they were having breakfast at Frisch´s on Friday mornings. My kids, Todd and Tracy, remember Mr. Henry fondly from Croftshire Elementary. Please know we are thinking of you....
Sincerely,
Sue and Larry Warner

I knew Mr Henry from Smith School. He was always so nice to me and everyone else. He was a great principal and even after I graduated I saw him at the ice cream that they owed on waynesville Ohio. He always enjoyed seeing students when they graduated.

What a wonderful man and educator Bill was. Together with his wife they made a great couple. I am honored to have worked with Bill at Croftshire School in Kettering for several years before he went to Oakwood. Bill was a friend to all he met and an inspiration to the many students he knew. Nancy, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I had hoped to get back in town and get together with Bill again. I will miss Bill even though I had not seen him for many years. I join the hundreds that are so sorry to lose Bill
