Not sure what to say?

So sorry for your loss. I ran across a photo of him from KU days and remembered what a gentle, thoughtful, caring person he was and continued to be throughout his life.

I am so sorry to hear of Henry's passing. He was a close friend and classmate at Northwestern Med School and residency at Univ of Iowa. We were room mates at both institutions. He was also a groomsman in my wedding. Prayers to his family. He will be hugely missed by all.

I just learned of his passing. To his family, my heartfelt sorrow for your loss. Henry was a part of a small core of friends who graduated from Northwestern U. Medical School in 1972. He is a credit to our class and our profession.

Sorry to hear this very sad news.

Geoffery Engel, M.D.,Chicago IL, Class of '72

My condolences from a colleague 1972 classmate.

My heart goes out to Henry's family at this time of loss. Henry and I were friends going all the way back to elementary school in Galesburg, IL. Henry was a kind, thoughtful man, with a wonderful sense of humor. I will carry memories of Henry with me always.

Nancy and I were classmates of Henry at GHS. Henry was very gentle, caring, quite, and get well resmpected. A real smart and very nice friend. God will find a place for him in Heaven, a true servant leader. God Bless his family

Lynn - I was very sorry to hear of Henry's passing. He was a great friend from Cub Scout days on...Chicago, Iowa City/Cedar Rapids. We laughed a lot. He'll be remembered.

Henry was a wonderful man, always knew how to navigate any situation. My most fond memory of him were the times he talked about each one of his sons. Such love.
Sending prayers to the Russell family.
