Henry Vander Smith Jr

He rose with the tide and the turning of a wrench, hands rough from engines and rivers alike. A fisherman at heart, a mechanic by trade, he fixed what was broken and cherished what God made. Now the waters are calm and the tools laid to rest, but the love he gave lives on in the hearts he blessed.
