I knew Hank for many years, he went to school with my eldest son. Hank was a great guy and will be missed by all that had the privilege of knowing him. God be with his family during this most difficult time.
Hank was like a son to me and would come to my son’s gym to work out when he was young. He would leave special gifts for me on my porch that I will cherish forever. Prayers to the family and all my love to you dear Hank…. Mrs. East & Family
Kim and Teresa, We only met Hank once, but the dance with him is one we will never forget. I’m sure you both have a wealth of great memories to hold on to and we pray for peace for you and his family. We love you. The Shockleys
