Henry enjoyed spending time with his family and enjoyed many meals with them, and he  was always up to rooting for the Eagles and Phillies!  He was an avid airplane enthusiast who could tell you the type of plane based on the engine.  He was an animal lover, and always loved when he could see his grand dogs Damian and Oreo. Henry also loved Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs from a young age, when he got to play Doc in a school play, and loved all things Disney and would proudly wear anything that had Mickey Mouse on it.  While a resident at Quakertown Center, Henry was a social butterfly at bingo and weekly movie showings,  and enjoyed interacting with the staff and residents on a daily basis.

Family and friends will be received at the John J. Bryers Funeral Home, Inc., on Tuesday, January 3rd, viewing from 10 am to 11 am. Funeral Service to follow at 11 am.  Interment will be at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery.
