Cile --

I am sending my condolences to you and your family. I met Henry when I worked at PBS until June of 1994. He drove me to work when I was stranded during the famous snow storm. During the hour ride from Indiana, we talked and I got to know more about him. I found him to be a true prince. It says a lot that I still remember him after all this time! I was a Sacred Heart parishioner and have bulletins mailed to me after my family moved to Nashville in 95. I just saw the announcment this week. I am sorry for your loss. He was a great man. Regards, Flora

To the Faurest family: my sympathy. I was secretary to H.S.Faurest,Sr. at a bank in Elizabethtown in the late 60's and 70's. He was such a dear person to work for. I had lost touch with Faurest family - had heard he had passed on but was not sure about Mrs. Faurest. Please give my condolences to her.
