I have so many memories of Henry! He was 1 person I met by him asking if my kids could go in the church bus? I went once and passed that they were the only people I trusted period. He was someone I looked up to and could ask him anything! I rented off him for close to 12 years and i must say to this day, I have never found a landlord that was so very understanding! He told me once he would do it for me cause kids and i were left, so I got behind on my rent and immediately said I could condense the payments but not ever doing that for other renters! He truly was the greatest landlord who cared! I looked up to him and Hester! They both were my lights when it became very dark in my life! I will never forget him! He dine too much for me and I realize that!! Yes. I said it publicly because it saved me and my kids from getting kicked out!m that's why everyone should know he would not do that because be had gotten close to me and my children! He was a man who practiced what be preached! Someone that I will never ever forget and love with all my heart for just being him! I know we will miss him especially Ester and daughters and sons, but remember if ever a man was ready and deserved heaven with a choir of angels plus the Lord, it was Henry! I love u ester and Henry! You just didn't realize possibly what both of you meant to my family and I? God bless u and your entire family!
