Mayme, I am so sorry. I loved being around Henry & singing with him. I'll always remember the good times & his humorous, kind personality.
We're in AZ yet but I'm so glad I looked up the obituaries from back home rather than find out months later.
Blessings to you & the family.

Henry always had a smile on his face and a song in his heart. As a fellow Barbershopper I feel privileged to have him in my life albeit a short time. I will miss his voice, his spirit and his fellowship but so long as Barbershop songs are sung Henry will remain a part of all of us in in legacy, song and fond memories.
Mayme thank you for sharing Hank with us, we treasured the moments and will do our best to carry the happy spirit and harmonious joy that was Henry Hank Malmquist.
