Henry, I will never forgot you and your family and your influence on my life. I'm certain that you accomplished all that you desired when you relocated closer to your daughters a few years ago. I thank you for all that you gave me personally. And wish you peace to rest along with your father, also gracefully in heaven.

Henry was not just a friend...he was my favorite among friends. He taught me that a brother is not necessarily a friend, but that a friend is always a brother. Gaby and my two sons loved Henry. We are all stricken by our sudden loss and still find it difficult to believe that the Lord has taken him. Our love to Betty and the girls.
