Our deepest sympathies to the Henry family. Words are inadequate to heal the hole in your hearts, but thinking of his smile and his laughter may assuage some of the pain. Celebrate a life well lived; the end of his journey; going home. May he rest in peace forevermore.

Pat was a good teammate in 005 on both basketball and softball teams, and a great friend. He´ll surely be missed. God bless you

My dearest Nancy, your loss is great. Patrick was a wonderful husband, and father to Tara and Erin. I loved our conversations held in"his office". A funny guy who served his city with honor.
