Henry worked in Pennsylvania for a brewery until moving to Florida at age 37. Worked most of adult life as construction superintendent for Lighthouse Homes Builders in Fort Lauderdale. A warm, gentle, giving, loving man who is a strong father and grandfather. A strong man in the Christian faith. He died as true Christians die, glimpsing his mother and father in heaven, angels, singing Christian music, telling his daughters that he had one hand on them next to his bed and one hand on Jesus.
