I had not known Henry for that long but the time that I did have the privilege of spending with him meant a lot to me. In these last few months I got to know a very loving and kind man that will be in my heart forever. And because of him I got to know his family with whom I became very fond of and I hope to have in my life for many years to come. Good bye Henry and thank you for letting me into your family.

All my love-
Nina
