  • We did not work together, yet I worked at the same place Henry worked. Every time Henry would see me walking (in the wintertime), he would stop and give me a ride the rest of the way. I feel as if I owe him a debt of gratitude for all the times he did this. I'm surely going to miss him! I'll see you in heaven when my time comes pal! - Posted by: William McFarland (Friend) on: May 02, 2016
