Not sure what to say?

Hearing Hank joke, laugh and share stories with my father will always be a joyful memory. It was truly a privilege to grow up sharing time with the Backmann family.

Kristin, Bob, and Mallory,
Very sorry to hear about the loss of your dad, and grandfather. He was a great patriarch to your family and a great business man that was responsible for the success and livelihood of many employees at Habco. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

Henry and I both started our business in 1960. He was one of my first client. I have fun memories of sharing Vodka martinis at Raffa's Restaurant in Glastonbury. He loved the three women in his life
Sincere condolences
Jerry Perloff, CPA (retired)

HENRY AND I BOTH STARTED OUR BUSINESSES IN 1960. I HAVE MANY FOND MEMORIES OF SIPPING VODKA MARTINIS TOGETHER IN RAFFA'S RESTAURANT IN GLASTONBURY. HENRY WAS ONE OF MY FIRST CLIENTS. HE LOVED THE THREE MAIN WOMEN IN HIS LIFE.
HE WAS PROBABLY A GREAT FATHER AND HUSBAND.
ALL THE BEST.--JERRY PERLOFF, CPA(RETIRED)

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I am so sorry for the loss of your loved one. Please find peace and comfort in Psalms 119:76.

What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us. Helen Keller
