So sad to hear of Henry´s passing. I worked with him at Justice for many years and had the privilege of being his assistant for a time. Henry was always so friendly, took the time to ask how I was and how my children were doing. I loved his sense of humour and zest for life. Henry would proudly speak of his wife and sons. My deepest condolences to his family.
Sincerely, Jo Anne De Luca

Certainly will miss that particular presence and confidence he always portrayed in everything he did. A good man he was, my extended cousin and friend.

My heartfelt condolences to Madeleine, Conrad, Alex and Family. Our prayers are with all of you.
