My most sincere condolences to you and your family. I have some very wonderful memories of Henry, Jr. I have oftentimes thought of him and prayed for him through the years. He wasn't just a cousin, but also such a good friend to me and we shared a lot of good and fun times when I was in high school. I remember he would come to visit me at my parent's house dressed in his Marine dress blues when he was on furlough and we'd go to Dairy Queen for a Coke and just hang out and catch up on how school was going for me and he'd talk to me about his life in the Marines. Henry will always have a very special place in my heart and I'm deeply saddened for your loss.
