We didn't know Henry very long, but he impressed us all at the office. We have been thinking of you and are very sorry for your loss.

I never met Henry, but all three of my children: Blane, Susan & Randy Edwards all worked for him at Happel Marine Products, both on Clearlake Rd & in Rockledge and he was very good to them. All three thought highly of Henry as a person and an employer. They also spoke highly of you, Delores.
I just occurred to me that almost all their friends worked for Happel's at one time or another. It was sort of a rite of passage for local teens in the 70's to have their first job there, on the...

To the Happel and Rusoff families:

Please accept my deepest and heartfelt condolences for your loss; may beautiful memories help to ease your pain at this most difficult time.

The first time I met Henry I knew he was a remarkable man. His mind was filled with ideas and dreams for the future. I was glad I got the chance to know him and his lovely wife Delores. He will be greatly missed in this community.

I had the privilege to meet Henry, his lovely wife, Delores, and their children in 1969 as a very young girl, young enough that I was witness to every step he took, from the family garage to the Cape, in creating a business reputation that many men would only dare to dream of. I worked with him for a short time and accompanied him and others on several sales trips departing from Green Air Park. He never ceased to amaze me with his knowledge, talent, wit, and desire to seek new adventures,...

Dolores you and your family have my sincere sympathy. I will keep you in my prayers.
