Hank,
the memory of you will not be lost. The one liners, and the speed with which you moved to cut the grass will always keep you alive. :)

Hank,
We were neighbors for 43 years and you will be missed! The routines of our lives are so taken for granted until they are abruptly changed. You are blessed with wonderful sons, daughter-in- laws and grandchildren. I will miss your quick wit❣
