Henry was a very kind, compassionate young man. His hugs were meaningful and healing. He was happy to make others laugh and feel better when they were down. He loved his family and friends and was really enjoying life. He was our sweet boy, greatly loved, and will be missed beyond any measure. He was taken from us too young, and we know that he would have continued to develop into an amazing man. Be with God, and we will see you again. In lieu of flowers, Henry would have preferred a donation be made in his honor to St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Community, Houston; The Houston SPCA; or any other cause that is special to you.
