Not sure what to say?

Henry was the best boss I ever had. I tried out a few more after him, but it didn't work out. He stirred his coffee with his pen even though there was a spoon, sharpened his pencil with his jacknife even though there was a pencil sharpener nearby and travelled to another county to get the best natural fertilizer (Dukie) even though there were plenty of garden shops around. We all looked forward to all the wonderful unique veggies he brought into the office for our weekly salad day.

I am so sad to hear about Henry's passing. He and Nile are dear friends and have been an important part of my life for more than 30 years. He will be greatly missed.
