A graduate of Dexter School, Brookline, MA, Noble and Greenough School, Dedham, MA, and Boston University. Henry enjoyed a long and fulfilling career at The Boston Globe in the sports department - a subject about which he was both passionate and knowledgeable. He will be deeply missed for his loyalty, wry humor, bounteous generosity, and keen observations of the world around him.
A private Memorial Service will be held this fall. Memorial contributions may be sent to Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital Development Office, 300 First Avenue, Charlestown, MA, 02129.
