He was an excellent heavy equipment operator and was known to have the magic touch on the backhoe and on the grader. Henry's love for his wife and family was his priority in life. He loved the outdoors, spending time at the cottage in Gowganda, going fishing, hunting, four wheeling and relaxing bu enjoying the sunset over the lake. There were numerous gathering of family and friends while enjoying a nice cold beer. Henry also enjoyed a good game of cards but never enjoyed losing. His empathy, his humour, his desire to help others and the love that he showed to those he cared for, lit up people's lives. It is for those reasons that we wish to thank him for everything.
