We will miss Hank very much at the Guild Athletic Club. I spoke to Hank often and he always had a great smile and wonderful disposition. He was always one of the first to greet me at the GAC; and, when I first met him, he said he would never forget my name. He never did.

May he rest in peace now after all that he has been through.

I was so sad to hear of Hank's death. He put up such a good fight. I remember so many New year's Eve parties that he and I were in charge of the entertainment. Such good fun at the Obergfells.

I am so sorry that I won't be able to make the memorial this evening. I am just out of two months of rehab after being hit by a car and my traveling days are limited. I will keep you and the family in my thoughts and prayers. Gloria

Dear Cousin Barbara,
It has been only recently that it was made known to me about the battle that Hank was courageously fighting. It is always sad to hear about this. I always enjoyed seeing Hank with his winning smile and outgoing personality. He always seemed to pick up where we last left off. He will definitely leave a huge void with all who knew him. My deepest sympathy to you. It is hard, especially at this time of the year.
My prayers are with you. I did not attend the service as planned, due to a seasonal illness.
