I will never forget the gentle spirit of my Uncle Hank, his kind smile made me happy growing up. I will always hold his memory close to my heart. I pray that God embraces him with his loving arms. I love you Uncle Hank!

He was known as, "Uncle Hank", to me. And, I will always remember him as having a gentle and quiet spirit. He was a soft spoken man, and had such a way about him, that was peaceful and kind. Never did I hear anything bad come from him. I will always admire him for his way he carried himself and took very well care of his family. I loved him then, and will love him always. My thoughts are with you and the family.

With loving memory,

Theresa Frederico Carrier
