Read MoreWe just learned of your father's passing. What a fine man "Henry" was. We were honored to have been his neighbor when we first moved to Bartow. He was always so friendly and a delight to meet when we shopped at Publix. It has been several years since we last saw Henry but have fond memories of him. Our deepest sympathy to all of you. With our thoughts and prayers.

My son and I worked for Mr. Helmuth back in the 70's and we loved him. He was a fine man and knew how to manage a grocery store. I have truly missed him at Publix since he retired. Publix has never been the same since he left. I used to run into him at the store and always let him know how much he was missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family and friends. May God bless each one of you as you go through this great loss.

Hi, Nancy, Susie, Johnny, Michael and families; So sorry to hear about your loss. He was a dear man, a beloved member of the family, and we have very fond memories of him and your mom (and you, too!). We pray The Lord will comfort and strengthen you at this difficult time. (We are out of town for a two-month training program and will not be able to be there for the service, but our thoughts and prayers are with you.)
May God bless you and keep you in His tender care.

One of the nicest men i've ever known, Mr. Helmuth was a friend for many years both to me and my dad who managed the Winn-Dixie across the road from his Publix. They really enjoyed being friendly competitors. It was a comfort to me to go in and see him after my dad died
