Dear Hank, Cathy, Doris Ann and Mary,
We wanted you all to know that we share in your sorrow in the passing of Uncle Henry last Friday. We have always kept up with him and your family through mom (Aunt Lucy). We know that Uncle Henry today resides in heavenly places with his Lord and those that preceded him. Surely it was a great day of rejoicing for them all. Last June 2017 at the reunion in TN we all had such fun listening to him share stories of days gone especially his military service and family. Jimmy, Marjie, Mike and I shared a cabin with him and his morning coffee before facing the challenges of each day. Our prayers are that you continue to celebrate the honorable and Godly man he was and that you allow those sweet memories to comfort you. Mom and Charlie also send their love and prayers.
God Bless and love,
Judy, Mike, Jimmy & Marjie
