"May you and your family be blessed with all the happy memories of Mr. Henke. I can remember Mr. & Mrs. Henke cheering at all of our SMOT and Cheviot Fire Association softball games. Wonderful memories were shared at the Davis Avenue house in Cheviot, Ohio. God bless all of you.
Unfortunately, my work schedule does not allow me the time for attending the Visitation. Please know I am with you in spirit."

Dear Millie,
I am so very sorry for your loss & I can say, I know exactly how you are feeling as I lost Jim in December.
Please accept my apology but I can't be at the funeral as I do not drive any longer due to glaucoma but I will be there in spirit.
Should you need to talk call me at any time at 662-3539.
Love,
Pat Moning
