Henry Warren Menefee, 99 of Bryan, passed away on Friday, June 18, 2025.

It brings me with heavy heart to say Heaven has gained another Angel. Some know him as Henry, W5RAS, dad, grandpa, uncle, cousin, and friend. He accomplished so much in his life and saw more than most of us can dream about. He was born in Madisonville, Texas. A fifth generation Texan. That his great grandfather signed the Declaration of Independence at Washington on the Brazos. He served his country in World War II in the Navy. Was the first to bring two-way radio service to BCS, which he provided radio service to the Police and Fire Department. After selling this company, he started the EZ- Doz where he pretty much put in the entire Briar Crest Country Club and the Merl Green Stadium doing the dozer work on both. Not to mention built several homes and was an amazing husband and father. He will be missed W5RAS signing off!
