I have ben fortunate to have known Henry for a number of years now, and I really found him to be a gentleman and as honest as they come. Henry had the utmost in integrity, a very hard worker, totally honest, fair, and a good friend. I know that many others greatly admired Henry in so many ways, and I know that I will truly miss him. I hope and pray that his family are well thru this terrible time and loss, and if I can help in any way I am only a phone call away. Remember always that Henry's friends are there also for you. God bless and I am extremely sorry I will be unable to attend the services for Henry as I am away in San Francisco attending a MCAC conference.


Again, all the best to Ralph and the rest of the family.
