I have known "Hank" since the early 1970s when we cleared our options trades through his clearing firm. As a youngster of 23 his door always seemed open to me and I found him to be a patient and insightful listener. Soon thereafter at 1 Illinois Center we would periodically play racquetball and when not engaged on the courts he could be seen playing cards and/or Backgammon. As I traded options and not commodity futures our interactions became sparse, but every time we would run into one another whether at the CBOE, CBOT or a downtown restaurant, Hank always remembered me by first name, smiled and was very cordial in our interactions. I will miss him.

Dear Rob, Judy and Susie,
This world is not the same without Henry Shatkin here to brighten and enliven it. 96 and he was never old for one minute. He cherished his family and was a good and loyal friend. May his memory be a blessing. Sherry Fox
