Henry is survived by his children, John Flannery (Donna), Robert Flannery (Melody), Rose Chatelain (Joel) and Kim Durr (Michael), 15 grandchildren, 20 great grandchildren, brothers Albert and Fred Dinapolis and numerous nieces and nephews.

I was awed by how talented you were with your hands, and thankful for the times you allowed me into your work area to have a closer look at your remarkable skills. Your brother Albert married our mother after our father passed away ...making sure we had a dad. That greatest of gifts also gave me, my brother and my sisters a second family that took us in as they're own. You became our Uncle Henry..an uncle we loved, and one we'll miss dearly.
