Dad was born to Clovis and Lucia (nee Lemoine) on December 11, 1926 in his hometown of Sainte-Agathe. As a young man, growing up with his brothers and sisters, papa attended a small rural school in the district of Saint-Adolphe where he made many lifelong friends. He later met the love of his life, Jeanne Delorme and a long distance love relationship started. They were married on September 29, 1951 in Saint-Joseph. They started their lives together with a simple home along the Red River which later became their palace. A farmer first, then a mink farmer, then an entrepreneur, Henri was a progressive visionary. He cherished his family and provided for them in whatever fashion he could. He saw opportunities in business that were way before their time. Seeing the great potential in the road construction business, he and Mom were very proud to start H. Baudry Construction Ltd. along with their four sons. Henri was very proud to be a member of the Manitoba Heavy Construction Association. Henri loved farming with his boys as well. He took an active part till the end whether it was checking on the crops or letting the boys know what needed to be done. Henri was a bargain hunter, he loved a deal. When the newspaper arrived, he would comb through them to be current on the news. He had many great discussions with friends and family; he always loved to debate. Henri was a loyal husband and friend, always inviting people in his home. His greatest joys were the pride in his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Papa always cherished and appreciated the blessings God had bestowed on him and Henri thanked God daily for these. Cher Papa, nous vous aimons. Vous êtes parti trop vite. Nous allons prendre soin de votre belle Jeanne . Nous vous n'oublierions jamais. Nous allons vous porter dans nos coeurs toujours. Avec notre amour Papa, vos enfants, vos petits-enfants et vos petits-petits enfants. Funeral Mass will take place at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, February 11, 2012 at the Sainte-Agathe Roman Catholic Church with viewing starting at 10:30 a.m. Interment of the cremated remains will take place at a later date in Sainte-Agathe.

Sincere condolences to my wonderful uncle's family. I am so sorry I cannot be in Ste Agathe with you all during these difficult times. Uncle Henri was always kind to me and I shall never forget his infectious laughter and huge heart. He taught me much about the value of hard work and common sense. I sure had fun working with him and my cousins in construction that summer back in the late 70's! A plus tard mon oncle. - Posted by: Guy Sherwood (nephew) on: Feb 11, 2012
