To Henry’s Family -
There are no words that can ease the pain of Henry’s passing. No poem, no song, no words of encouragement. We are with you on your journey. We surround you with love and peace. We walk with you all in the valley of the shadow. You are not alone. There are many of us who have lost children…to drugs…to drunk drivers…to illness. There are many of us and we stand with you. I send my love to you. Henry’s song continues. The dance of life in him continues. And love wins. Love always wins.

Thank your for sharing your story with all of us. Many who have never met you share your grief and will remember your strength in fighting for your wonderful boy. Sending love and strength your way.

The scholarship fund is the best idea I’ve ever heard. My son, too, is a young addict. He is still in the ‘forest’ and since he is now over 18 with no insurance (and we had to have him arrested to get in-patient help for him when he was underage!) I know that there is an extreme lack of real help for many addicts out there. I’m glad that maybe the scholarship fund may be able to provide treatment and thus, a new life for some young addict out there. What an honorable, lasting and meaningful tribute to Henry. Peace be with you.

I am so sorry to hear that this has happened. I am on vacation and will not be able to make it to the gathering. I have been praying for Henry and I will still be parying for your family. I am so sorry and I really wish there was something I could do to make this better but I know that at this moment nothing will help. I am so sorry that I will not be able to make it on Saturday but my thoughts are with you
I am praying for you,
Meghan

I’m so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing this with all of us, and thank you for being the kind of person to start a fund for families who do not have the financial means to help their loved ones with their addictions.

I am so sorry about the loss of your beautiful boy.
It’s not fair.
Thank you for sharing his story. I’ve been thinking about you, him, and your family constantly.

Never the Spirit is Born
The spirit will never cease to be never
Never the time when it was not.
End and beginning are dreams Birth and deathless and changeless
Remains the spirit forever.
Death has not touched it at all
Dead though the house of it seems.
