Henry and I (Tom Hill), Bemidji Lumberjacks, faced off against each other in 1968 and 1969 for the Region 8 Baseball championships. He and I both pitched against each other and I was fortunate enough to win both games 5-4 and 5-4 and advance to the Minnesota State Baseball Tournament. After the second win Henry came up to me and stated, "Tommy, you only white boy to beat me twice!" I have never forgotten that cherished moment with the greatest hockey player in the world!

Such an incredible player and an even more incredible person. He was more than hockey. Sincere condolences to the Boucha family, so very sorry for your loss. As you go through this very difficult time, may you find comfort and strength from God to help you endure your loss.

I have a clear memory of Henry as a phenomenal high school player and a certain star in the NHL. I then lived briefly in the Warroad community - at about the time Henry was trying to fight back from the Forbes assault - and each day was struck by the influence that he had in Northern MN, and the love he received from those citizens. He had a difficult life to be sure, but he left a positive mark and will certainly be both missed and discussed for a very long time.
