To the family of Mr. Henry Addleman, I've had the Pleasure and Privilege of knowing both Mr. and Mrs. Addleman. You couldn't meet nicer people. Visited in their home many times. Rest in peace Mr. Addleman.
I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad. I know it's devastating to lose a parent. I pray God gives you comfort during this time.
🇺🇸Please accept my condolences and sorrow for you loss. Thank you so much for your service in the Army to our country.🇺🇸
Henry and Shirley were neighbors of my family when we all lived on Rosewood Drive in West Memphis. We missed them when they moved from there but we have nice memories of them and their traveling motor home and Henry’s working on his assorted projects in the garage. Memories of nice people like them are so dear to us. I pray for God’s peace and comfort for Shirley and her family.
