Connie and Family you have my deepest sympathy.
Though he is gone,I pray that Hank's legacy of love for you will comfort and strength you. Hank was a joy to be around and his kindness will always leave his footprints on my heart. I loved to watch him waltz and I deeply appreciated all the photos he took of our dance class and gave to me.
Thank you Hank and I know the Angels in Heaven are rejoicing.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Connie and the family in their time of loss. We met Hank and Connie on a group trip to Toronto several years ago. It was in last April that Hank connected with me on LinkedIn. Hank's Memories of love and friendship will always be with us.

I'm extremely saddened to hear Hank's passing, a good friend of almost half a century. He was a brilliant engineer and a model citizen involved in many charitable events. I shall miss him very much. May the Good Lord keep him under His wings. Fraternally, Tom Li

The time spent with Hank over the years are some of my fondest memories at Goddard. His counsel, insight, and wisdom were priceless. Thanks Hank and God Bless.
