I'm so sorry to hear of Henry's passing. I always knew him by that name, what his mom and dad called him. I grew up with him as one of the big kids. i remember him as sweet and funny. A lot like his dad, Bennie, in that respect. I miss Elsie and Bennie. Now I'll miss knowing that Henry was in this world. Peace to Robert and to Sheryl. Marguerite Jones
