The country is in mourning a veteran has passed away.

My staff and I were sad to learn of Henry's passing. I enjoyed my many conversations with Henry and Mark during his visits to Bridgeport Hospital. The UConn women have lost a staunch and loyal fan - my wife and I will root with greater enthusiasm to help fill the void. My staff and I will miss Henry's visits with us - he was a kind and gentle man. We extend our condolences to all his friends and family.
