I didn't realize that Henry had retired but I have missed seeing his kind and smiling face in the hallways of the Cincinnati VA. May you, his family find comfort in knowing that absence from Henry's human vessel means that his presence is now with the "LORD". He is at peace in the LORD's" loving arms.
