Mis más sentido pésame desde la familia española. Henry era el primo de mi abuelo Paco La O de la Peña, hijo de su tía Gertrudis de Sevilla. Fue tremendamente generoso con mi familia cuando estuvimos en dificultades.
Me encantaría contactar con la familia.
Descansa en paz primo Henry
Paul, Janet and family,So sorry to hear of Henry's passing. We have fond memories of him at our stays at the Nevada. Also, remember his 90th birthday party. Rest in peace and keep happy HenryMike & Lois Rickert
Uncle Henry was part of what is being called the "greatest generation" and he certainly deserved the title, thou he would of scoffed at being called that. He was a testament for "The American Dream", a first generation American who lost his father and mother early in life and helped care and look after his younger sister. The start of a life full of caring, service, hard work, and humor.He was a man that set a standard that I judged my own life against many a time, and still do. He would take a vision/dream, add discipline, planning, self learning, and hard work and achieve his goals. The only fault that comes to mind was his generosity, he had a hard time saying no, not to bad for 96 years of living.On a humorous note, I will always remember his creativity in the use of vinyl siding, he could write a book on 101 ways to use vinyl siding around a motel!Anyone who spent time with Uncle Henry had their lives enriched. He will be well remembered and sorely missed.I think I will hang up my Yankee's hat and start rooting for the Red Sox's in his honor.Love and prayers
