Mary Kay,
I am so terribly sorry for your loss. I know how much your family has ALWAYS meant to you so I can't imagine the pain and void you must feel with the loss of Henry. I do know the good Lord promises us His helping hand and He also places people in our lives to help us through these hard times. Maybe the thought that he is no longer in pain and is now in paradise will somehow help you and your family through the days to come. I will keep you in my prayers.

My sincerest condolences to the family of Henry Santaella. I will remember all the various musical groups and gigs we enjoyed in the past. Whenever I hear Gino Vanelli, the Allmen Brothers or Return to Forever I will think of Henry. Your gave us so much joy with your music and provided us with inspiration these last few years on how to deal with illness. You and your family will always be in my heart and I will continue to keep all of you in my prayers. May our good Lord hold you in his hands and take away all the pain and suffering you endured. Vaya con Dios Good Friend

I will miss you very much Uncle Hank. Your ability to remain so positive and strong during your battle with ALS was inspiring, we should all have such faith.
