I will never forget the wonderful time we shared in your classes at the old North High as we your students struggled to learn Spanish. For sure, we learned Spanish, but more importantly we learned so much more. Thanks for being our teacher. You were one of the best. May God's Peace be with you today and always.

I loved Miss Henry at NHS when I was a Junior. She was a very good teacher and I just wish I paid more attention to her, but I was too young and immature. May she rest in peace. Nancy Ghiz Walton

Rest in peace, Miss Henry.
She was a kind woman, and a respected and patient teacher.

Ms. Henry was one of the few teachers that I still remember and enjoy great memories of today. I know she would be proud that I am teaching my children to learn Spanish and I use some of what I learned from her with them.

Ms. Henry always treated me very well. I enjoyed her teaching and her personality. I also walked by her house every day to go to Burncoat. I think of her often. She will be missed as a very important part of Burncoat history. Adios Ms. Henry!
