Henry "Hank" DePetro

I'm here to celebrate your life
And the measure of its worth
And every single life you touched
While you were on this earth.
I want to pay my last respects.
That's why I'm writing here,
To thank you for your friendship
And all the high school memories we held so dear.
It’s been a privilege to have known you.
We were, back then, more like family, not just friends,
And please know that I will oft enjoy visiting You on my strolls
down...

His work with students at Greely West was generous and mentoring. Hank will be remembered kindly.

I'm here to celebrate your life dear Henry
And the measure of its worth
And every single life you touched
While you were on this earth.
I wish to pay my last respects.
That’s why I'm noting here,
To thank you for your friendship
And all the memories of You that I hold dear.
It’s been a privilege to have known you.
whereas we were highschool family, not just friends,
And please know I will carry you in spirit
Until we meet up once...

Henry was a classmate of mine at both Keating and Central. He was easy to like because he was so friendly and upbeat. My husband, Gary, and I were able to converse with him over the years at our high school reunions. He was a person I always looked forward to seeing, catching up on our lives was of interest to both of us. I was not surprised to learn that Henry had earned a doctorate because he was always inquisitive and enjoyed discussing topics other than the weather, etc. No surface talk...
