His death is a tragic and needless one. Henry was obviously in great pain and unable to confide in any friend or family member for whatever reason.

This tragedy however<u>DOES NOT</u>diminish the man that was. Henry served his country with great honor and pride.

Let us remember…..

Hank began at the 60th Aer Port as a P304. I was the 12th member to the new team and shortly there after Hank and Jim Parsons arrived. We got the new HF radios PRC47 and PRC174 but our primary radio was the PRC41 and the beast of a battery the BB451. During the time I was in USAFSS, Hank had moved to Hurlburt and I read about him in the Airman magazine. I was deeply saddend to hear of the circumstances of his death and my wife's and my heart went out to Denise and family.
