I'm so sorry to hear the news. Henry is the reason I started playing drums; I still use the kit that he gave me ten years ago. My thoughts are with you.

Know that so many are thinking of you and your family as you celebrate the life of Henry. I only knew Henry through you and our time on the golf lesson tee.
May you be comforted at this time of loss.

Anice, Henry was an incredible man. He devoted his life to others and helped so many along in their journeys and difficulties. He was a straight shooter who didn't mince words. That's what made him so wonderful of a friend and mentor to many of us. Our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family.
