Henry was my beloved cousin. I have found memories of us cousins all playing together as children while their family visited Eugene, Or. He is missed and remembered by all of our family. Go with Christ Henry.

I have such fond memories of cousin Henry as a child when he and his family would come to Eugene, Oregon to visit Grampa Allen. I wish that i could known him as an adult. We just never know when our time has come and Henry's was way too soon. Our deepest condolences to the family and may you all find peace in Christ our Lord.
