Our sincere and heartfelt sympathies are extended to our dear neighbor’s family. Hank was a special person – always so friendly and positive. We appreciated his friendship and will miss him. May God grant him peace and give comfort to the entire family.

We can’t begin to imagine what you are feeling, but let us share our heart-felt condolence. A very special cousin to me with memories of playing as children in Ashland, and later visits to our home and to my parents home. Everyone who knew Hank loved him. This world has lost a wonderful person.

I am sorry to hear about Hank’s death. My first trip as a conductor (late 2010)was going to Toledo with him. He was extremely helpful and patient. I made several other trips with him before he retired. I’ll always remember him as quiet and professional, but he did talk about family reunions. Plus he took me to several of the hot dining spots in Perrysburg.
