Dear Patsy, Debbie and Robin,
I am so sorry to learn of Hank's passing. It will be difficult to see you without him as you were a beautiful couple/family and he loved each of you so much. Hank was a kind and loving person to all he knew. Whenever I saw him, we were always glad to see each other and talk about old times. His warm smile will be missed but his beautiful spirit will always be remembered. You all have special memories to reflect upon during the "down times" that will help your hearts to heal. Gone but truly never forgotten!
Love to all of you,
DeVon Turner

Patsy, Hank will be missed by many, including those at Indiana Downs who have ask about him several times. He was a fixture there and they all looked forward to talking with him. My favorite memory is the night he left you at Mom's 85th party because he got lost.
