Henry Cheves

Remembering many good ole days with Henry and Susan and sending much love to the family.

I admire his gentle persistence.

I was Henry´s parish administrator when he served as rector of St. Pauls Episcopal Church in Bennettsville. I have several watercolors in my home received as gifts for everything from birthdays to Mothers Days to Christmases. He will always be remembered as my favorite boss of all time. I will be praying for you, Susan.

My house was filled with Henry's watercolors and they brightened every room they hung in.

I was fortunate enough to take the water color class at the church from Henry. I awakened my love of painting he taught me so much. It was not just a painting class we solved the world´s problems every week. He was kind, sometimes a little critical, he would tell me to stop and leave my painting alone before I turned it into a brown mess. But I loved that class and hearing his stories growing up in Charleston. He loved nature and plein air painting. He loved Edisto. I will cherish him...

My deepest condolences and heart felt sympathy.

I never met Henry in person, but we messaged through the I Love Edisto page, and I so enjoyed his paintings. When I would pass the State Park camera, I would wave to him because I know that he watched it frequently. His absence and posts will be missed, and his talent for seeing the beauty around him will be missed even more. Rest in peace Henry.

My condolences to family and friends. I never met Henry but have several of his beautiful paintings. I already miss his FB posts on "I Love Edisto."

Prayers for all
