Henry attended Boys Catholic High School in Augusta and graduated in 1944.
After high school Henry joined the Navy and served for two years.
Returning home from the Navy he attended the University of Georgia and graduated with a degree in chemistry. Henry worked as a chemist in Greenville,
South Carolina and later as a chemist in New York City. He eventually returned home to Augusta where he remained for the rest of his years. He was a man of many interests including the law, real estate, and flying.
Henry enjoyed life and he enjoyed his family. He loved visits from friends and family. In his last years of life, when he was no longer able to go many places, those visits and phone calls were a blessing to him and brought him great joy. He had wonderful caretakers who took great care of him and doted over him. We thank them all for the kindness they showed him.
