I am so sorry to hear about my fellow classmate Henry's transition. We first met at Buck Lodge Middle School in the 7th grade. We then went on to be classmates at High Point High School and we graduated together in1995. Henry was kind and friendly. He pretty much got along with everyone! He was very much involved with activities not only for our class but with all activities in school! I haven't seen him since our meet and greet for our 20th year high school reunion. I'm glad that got the chance to see him then and I am also glad that I had the chance to know him. I'm know for sure that he will be truly missed by all that knew him. May the Lord comfort his family and loved ones during this time of sadness. My deepest sympathy and condolences to you all! Rest in Paradise Henry!
