Henry Was a great friend of mine at KU we joined PKT together and had alot of fun memories! Henry was a great person and knew how to make any room light up with just his energy and remarks. He will be missed greatly.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I didn’t know Henry personally, as he was a couple of grades ahead of me in high school, but I remember that I would always see him smiling. He had a radiant glow about him, like the type of person that you always want to be around

Genuinely the life of every party and a loud, confident, joyful, upbeat soul. We were not friends but went to the same high school and have crossed paths a few times since. Somehow his spirit is so grand that I feel deeply impacted even though we've only talked a few times. He is an incredibly bright star, still in my memory. He was just one of those people who laughed and smiled with everyone and could bridge any gap to make a new friend. When he was talking all eyes were on him because he was not just funny and confident, but also very kind. Everyone always smiled when he spoke. For a young man in today's world, he had a kindness and depth that I haven't seen in a long time and I genuinely mean that. He was a rare sort of person, in my opinion. It feels horrible that his light will not continue to be spread. I believe in reincarnation and know he just learned his lessons early and is off to the next adventure now. A beautiful spirit in any lifetime. I'm so sorry for your loss.

I had the joy of Henry's friendship beginning in high school. We were brought together by our mutual interests - both members of the Shawnee Mission Northwest Soccer and Tennis teams. Collaborating with Henry on and off the field was a pleasure. His face rarely lacked a smile, and the laughs were frequent. Henry was hard working: he had a natural talent and intuition that granted him success in all aspects of life. My most fond memory of Henry is jamming out to songs in the team bus on the way to a tennis meet. Thank you for the endless memories. I'll miss you bro.

Love,

Spencer

I am so sorry about your loss of Henry. I knew Henry from his involvement in the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity at the University of Kansas. I was the alumni graduate council president from 2020 to 2022 and worked with Henry on various projects when he was the resident council vice president and then president. He was so full of energy and enthusiasm and I was so excited to work on things with him because I knew they would get done. He was a super nice guy and really enjoyed talking with him. I heard that he was at the fraternities tent on the hill at last year’s homecoming and wish I had known that as I would have given him a big hug. Again I am so sorry for your loss and will keep your family in my prayers. If there is anything I can do please let me know.

I didn't know Henry well, but I'm grateful to have shared space with him as a friendly acquaintance throughout high school. He always chose to be kind, and it gouges me to know that he's no longer with us. I offer my heartfelt condolences to the family and to all those who were fortunate enough to have known him.

Pucka and family, words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss. Henry was such a wonderful young man. We remember him from the last Wing Ding party at our house several years ago. I think he was 10 or 11. He helped Ken cook and asked Ken for the recipe. Darling young man. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. All our love, Ken and Polly Prendergast.

Words can not express the sadness we feel for the loss of this wonderful young man. He was truly loved by anyone who knew him! He was our grandson thru the marriage of his dad and our daughter. We grew to love him in a very short time. Our most sincere thoughts, prayers and love go out to his parents and his brother and sisters and all his family members and friends now and in the coming days. We will always miss you, Henry, your death left a hold that can't be filled.

Henry was truly one of my all time favorite 4th graders. He was the life of the party! He made us all laugh and enjoy ourselves. He was beloved by all the teachers at Broken Arrow. We all wanted Henry in our class. He had so many gifts. His passing is a terrible loss. I'm praying that his family and friends may find some peace and comfort. I'll never forget you, Henry.
