Henry and Mitch, good square dancers ("Guys & Dolls Club?), opened their home to WFHS kids for square-dance lessons. We had so much fun! Henry was very giving to our community, and this remains one of my favorite memories. Condolences to her family.

So sad to learn of Henry’s passing. I have such wonderful memories of my times spent staying with Mitch and Henry. I love that when she and my mom, Norma Olson, got together they had such a good time and so many fun memories. Henry was ready to do anything-she was so much fun! I am sorry for your loss, Mitch, Sam, Michelle and the rest of the family.

Because of the age difference, it was always "Aunt Henry" to me. Aunt Henry was a loving and kind woman and had a beautiful heart and laugh. I hope and pray that she is at peace. I will remember her humor and her gracious hospitality all of my days.
