My fondest memory of Henry was when the two of us were painting our Church...I had paint all over my brush and the handle. I looked at his and said wow, you only have paint on the tip of your brush! "He replied why get paint all over the brush, you only paint with the tip of the brush."
Every time I paint, I remember his words...and yes my paint skills improved 100%.
You will be missed!!!

We offer our sincere condolences to the family of Henry. I have known Henry for a long time and always love to hear him sing with that deep voice he had. He was stylish in his dress and demeanor and will be sorely missed.

I called Henry "The Mad Hatter" because he ALWAYS wore a dapper hat. He was a kind and gentle man who sang with the male chorus with passion. I will miss his presence and his voice.
